Notes:

This is an easy crochet wrist warmers pattern suitable for confident beginners.

Work wrist warmers to your preferred length and width. *The size I make in the pattern will fit most women, but if not, it’s very easy to customize to whatever size you need. I explain in more detail in the pattern.

The pattern is easily customizable and works well with solid or lightly textured yarn.

Keep your tension relaxed to maintain drape and stretch.

Measurements:

Ribbing circumference: 6″ (unstretched), and it can stretch a few inches more.
Total length: 5.5″

Sizing & Fit:

These wrist warmers are worked to fit comfortably around the wrist and forearm without being tight.
To adjust height, chain fewer to make it shorter and chain more to make it taller.
To adjust circumstance, simply work more or fewer rows/repeats but just make sure to have an even number of rows.

Tip: Try the wrist warmer on occasionally as you work. Just a quick “wrap and check” ensures a custom fit every time.

Cuff/Ribbing

Row 1: ch 19, 1 sc into second ch from hook and each ch across. Total of 18 sc

Row 2: Turn, ch 1(do not count as a st), 1 sc into the bl of each stitch across. Total of 18 sc

Repeat row 2 until you have 38 rows, or until the cuff fits comfortably around your wrist (not to tight and not too loose). Just make sure your total number of rows is an even number.

After we reach the end of row 38 we’ll connect the ends together. Turn, ch 1, sl st into each st of both ends together across forming a cuff. Turn your cuff inside out so that the bump from the join is on the inside. Do not fasten off. We’ll continue on the rest of the wrist warmer hand panel. Check picture below
