The Tulip Garden Wristwarmers are cosy, beautiful wristwarmers in stranded colourwork worked in the round. They have a short hem in stockinette stitch at the beginning and end. When changing between the stockinette stitch and colourwork sections a single purl rnd is worked to create a natural fold in the fabric. When the knitting is complete the stockinette hems are whip stitched to the WS of the work.
