In several episodes and seasons of the series Outlander, Claire wears coarsely knitted arm warmers.
This inspired me to knit these wrist warmers from 40g of high quality tweed yarn (85% virgin wool, 10% acrylic, 5% viscose) (12,20 Euro/100g) in brown with a cable pattern. To make it nice and loose, this time with needle size 8.
Virgin wool is a natural product (from sheep) keeps you very warm and can absorb a lot of moisture. New wool is a little more demanding when it comes to care. Ideally, wash handicrafts made of this material only by hand and let them dry lying down.
Please follow the care instructions so that you can enjoy this beautiful garment for a long time.
The yarn used is OEKO-TEX® certified (No. 1976-294).
