Wristwarmers - Princess on the pea

"Prinsessen på erten" wristwarmers.

Spending some time in Silkeborg at my cottage with a friend, can be dangerous if not planning to do some yarnshopping. I was just going to show Alexandra some of the knittingshops in Silkeborg. Gadestrik is a small but very nice knitting shop in the centre of Silkeborg.
I ended up buying a kit for wristwarmers. From "Kastaniestrik". Never knew I was going to need that.
But when I saw the colours and the pattern- I was sold.

 I knitted a pair for me. Even though I rarely use purple colours.

I knitted for my oldest daughter.

I knitted for my youngest daughter.

Oldest and Youngest receiving their wristwarmers.

And them my lovely granddaughter got a pair of her own. That is simply just what a small toddler need :-)

wrist warmers - another left-over yarn project

I had one ball of soft yarn left over from knitting a hat. I decided to experiment a bit with tuck stitches. And I made a pair of wristwarmers, knitting the thumb part on by hand afterwards. The hard part was to decide which side was reverse....

Sofie's new wistwarmers

Sofie is playong the flute in the schoolband. They have a dark blue uniform, and wear black shoes and socks. Playing the flute in the spring in the western part of Norway can be a cold and wet experience. So she has some wristwarmers in bright colours she has used for practice.

But the independence day, May 17th, the needed black or dark blue wristwarmers if any. So - please mum - knit some for me.

I have this easy and fun pattern from Denmark I have used before - so I used it again - this time in thicker, black wool.

Rauma wool.

And she was happy -and has used them.

Halvhansker i Geilsk tynn ull/Wristwarmers

Etter å ha strikket underslyngel og Løbetid fra Geilsk, hadde jeg litt rester. Så et par halvhansker i tynn ull må jo være saken. Disse er alt blitt mye brukt.

After having knittet the Skirt and blouse from Geilsk - I was left with some of that nice thin wool yarn. Enough to a pair of wristwarmers. ALready used a lot - this spring has not exactly been to warm.
