Crochet Pattern: Beginner’s Wrist Warmers with Ridges

For the colder days, here is a pair of wrist warms (fingerless gloves) to crochet. They are designed to fit snug and keep your wrist and arms extremely warm while leaving your fingers free to move around. As a beginner level pattern, you will be crocheting a rectangle that will fold around your arm. The piece will then be sewn shut, leaving a small hole for your thumb.

    I made these yesterday and they turned out great. The ribbed pattern is great because it allows the wristers to stretch. Only took me a couple hours, plus the pattern was very simple and relaxing to crochet.
