I’ve just now finished a pair of wrist warmers for my going-to-be sister-in-law (who carried 15 books for me on the plane). The pair on the picture is worked in purple mohair in a wave pattern with brown beads on the edge, knitted on 2.0 mm needles. Yes, that is tiny… I added the beads (see below for how to add beads to yarn) and put them in the knit while casting on. I think it is prettier to add the beads in between the stitches from the long yarn side rather than the tail side. But actually, it is hard to se any difference. The edge is
made my 3 rows of garter stitch. The body is worked with 4 repeats of waves, between every row of wave repeats are 3 rows of stockinette stitch (slätstickning). The first 3 wave repeat items are worked over 19 stitches each (the cast on was 19*4+2=78 stitches): k2tog 3 times, k1, *cast over, k1* 6 times, skpo 3 times. Then I decreased 6 stitches per repeat and worked wave repeats over 13 stitches: k2tog 4 times, k1, *omslag, k1* 4 times, skpo 2 times. After 4 wave row repeats, I increased a stitch between each repeat. Continue until you have the desired length, knit 3 rows garter stitch and bind of. Sew the seam inside the two edge stitches.
