Our newest Yarn Punk is here and she has been an online friend for quite some time now – Tonja from Pink Plumeria Maui! Today, she is bringing us the free pattern to these lovely Braided Wrist Warmer! So great for the fall! Please give her a warm welcome and send her some love on her side of the internet!
“My name is Tonja and I’m the designer behind Pink Plumeria Maui. I have been crocheting for five years and I love to create fun patterns. When I’m not crocheting I’m a full time mom to four boys. I live in Maui so a good portion of my time is spent at the beach, hiking or finding something adventurous to do outside. I hope you enjoy this pattern and have fun making it. You can find me on Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook. I also sell my patterns Etsy and Ravelry.”
The Quick Braided Wrist Warmer Pattern is a fun pattern that works up quickly . It is available in three sizes based for women based off the Craft Yarn Council standard body measurements and sizing. The pattern is worked by making a band for the wrist, working on top of the band and joining on the sides. Simple knowledge of crochet braided cables is helpful and I’ve included set by set photos to help you.
