Striped Wristwarmers offer a soft, welcoming way to explore color while creating a cozy accessory perfect for everyday wear—or for gifting to someone special. Worked seamlessly in the round, the design blends gentle stripes with a subtle colorwork round between each band, giving the transitions a smooth, handcrafted charm. With minimal floats and an easy, steady rhythm, this project is an ideal first step into stranded knitting. It’s quick, comforting to make, beginner-friendly, and a versatile addition to any handmade wardrobe.
The pattern combines two of The Fibre Co.’s beautiful yarns—Amble Minis and Transitions—to highlight both texture and tone. Amble, a soft yet durable fingering-weight blend of Merino wool, alpaca, and recycled nylon, offers rich color and gentle elasticity, perfect for close-fitting accessories. Paired with Transitions, a color-changing yarn that effortlessly shifts from one hue to the next, the result is a harmonious interplay of color.
The Fibre Co. Amble Minis (70% Easy-wash Merino wool, 20% Easy-wash alpaca, 10% recycled nylon, 81 m (88 yd) per 25 g mini) in shade Hadrian’s Wall (A) – 2 minis.
The Fibre Co. Transitions (50% alpaca, 50% Peruvian Highland wool, 300 m (328 yd) per 100 g cake) in shade Zephyr Melt (B) – 1 cake.
Note: The original sample photographed on the model was knit in the now-discontinued Canopy Fingering yarn.
