Required skills / knowledge:

elastic cast-on and cast-off, work in the round, k, p, ability to read the colour chart.

Original yarn:

DROPS Fabel.

Suggestions on the size alterations:

• To make the warmers longer / shorter, knit more / less rows of the pattern as suggested in the instructions. Don’t forget to follow the colour chart!

• To alter the circumference of the warmers, either go up or down one or two needle sizes or adjust the colour scheme by not knitting the first and the last stitch of the repeat (two first and two last stitches of the repeat and so on).
