Tiny Cables Crochet Wristwarmers

Tiny Cables Crochet Wristwarmers

It took a bit longer than I anticipated, but these Tiny Cables Crochet Wristwarmers are finally done! I got the idea because at my job I can wear a sweater, but my hands always seem to stay a bit "cool", I wanted some cute wristwarmers that would do the job, keep my fingers free for typing and the mouse and look cute when away from my desk. These are perfect.

I worked these crochet wristwarmers up in "Bamboo Ewe" which is a lovely yarn. The stitch texture can be clearly seen, the yarn is soft to the touch, and warm. I couldn't ask for a better yarn for this project. These crochet cables are small and easy to learn, the wrist ribbing is done in Tunisian Crochet.

I would categorize this crochet pattern as intermediate. These lovely crochet goodies take one ball of yarn to complete and can be done quickly for any gift-giving needs. The pattern is available in the Etsy Shop, Ravelry, and soon for the Nook and Kindle!!

Learn to Crochet - The Front Post Double Crochet

****** This is my 300th post!!! Today only, leave a relevant comment on this post to be entered in a random drawing ******

As we continue to progress in our learning of crochet, I wanted to share this video with you. The front post double crochet (or triple crochet) is a stitch used to create a raised stitch in various patterns. It's a great stitch to learn if you want to give the illusion of ribbing or to create crochet cables. The Crochet Cabled Scarf is a great pattern to help you practice the Front Post Double Crochet stitch.



This video can be found at my YouTube channel along with all the other videos I've showcased here on the blog. I'd love to hear your feedback. Do you have a stitch you're currently struggling with or would like to learn? Let me know, maybe I can get a video done to help.

It must be Thursday because I'm thinking fashion when I should be obsessing over all the finishing, labeling tagging and bagging I need to do in the next three days coming up to stART on the Street! Nevertheless, I'm looking at sweaters, scarves, gloves and hats because it's getting nippy here in New England and I'm excited!

As much as I'd like to think I could make myself all the warm clothing I need this season, my reality check says NOT! So I came across this lovely Cashmere sweater and stopped to drool. I can see myself wrapped in this lovely piece with jeans and the new boots I'm sure to get this season going to dinner with my hubby or just to hang out and be seen!!!

Now that I've come to my senses, I just want to put the style in my databank so one day, when I do have the time, I can re-create this in lovely cashmere, baby alpaca or merino (whichever comes first) and live my fantasy. After all, it is a classic style that can always be tweeked for the time.
