Old-Freshened
The old-fashioned look of gingham is given a fresh new feel in these lovely wristwarmers. The top and bottom are exact reverse images of each other, and in fact, the wristwarmers can be flipped upside-down if you want the opposite colour on top – or wear one upside-down and one right-side up, whatever strikes your fancy! The bamboo yarn used to make the model wristwarmers shown here gives a fabric with a lovely softness, shimmer and drape, without being too hot; but any fibre will work nicely, depending on how cold you expect it to be!

- long medium: 8” length, 7” outer circumference
- short large: 5.75” length, 8” outer circumference
