Petra

Eight years ago I crocheted some wristwarmers for my friend Petra and then forgot all about it (the wristwarmers, not my friend). When we met recently she was wearing them and I decided that now would be a good time to write the pattern. The originals were in back loop only single crochet but I prefer this slip stitch version.

In the 15 pages pattern, you learn with lots of step photos

• back loop only slip stitch (B)
• front loop only slip stitch (F)
• inverse back loop only slip stitch (iB)
• decreases
• increases
• color change
• the invisible seam for the wide rib pattern, replacing a row of B
• the invisible seam for the wide rib pattern, replacing a row of iB
• decreases in the seams

yarn: The Plucky Knitter, Primo fingering in Betrothed and Macaron, approx. 11 g each for the short version, 16 g each for the long version

The pattern is available in English and in German.
