NEW PATTERN / Mitten Cuffs

Maybe it's overuse due to my chronic knitting habit, my obsession with making homemade bread (kneading is hard work!), or maybe it's the damp west coast air that chills my bones. I know it's partly because I spend more time than I would like at the computer... Whatever the reason my wrists and fingers are always cold and achy and I've been dying to whip up some wrist warmers for those long stints on the keyboard and to wear outside during this transitional season when it's not quite cold enough for gloves.

Solution: Mitten Cuffs!

{unfolded}

{cuffed}

I didn't really think much of these mitten cuffs other than they filled a need (and my wrists are very happy for that), but when I wore them out for the first time I got so many compliments on them, I was thrilled!
