A second pattern for armwarmers - I'm on a roll!

#1

Happy New year to you all! Hope that 2006 brings much knitting, yarn and frogless projects.

I just wanted to post my second ever original pattern for armwarmers. I’m pretty proud of them. They are simple, knit flat and using knitpicks “shine and twist” (thanks for the introduction to knitpicks Amy, I’m totally addicted now). I love this supple rib pattern, it’s a great rib and looks pretty esp. in this yarn. I’m not a green fan however, and have mixed feelings about the armwarmers, so I’m interested to know what others think.

Anyway, the pattern and more info is on my blog HERE. Let me know if you want me to put it in the forum too (it’s pretty long).

Thanks Bonnie, yes the picture I posted here doesn’t do the stitch justice, I fell in love with it, particularly the stretchiness of it.

Edit: here is a picture of the close-up of the stitch…
