Gowla Warmers
About:
A timeless design that depending on the size chosen can be worn on the legs or the wrists, on a child or an adult, and shared by many. Warmers that can be passed down as children grow, taken off a mother’s wrists to warm a child’s legs, worn to a yoga class, or as an extra layer on chillier days as we conserve energy or are simply out and about. This pattern is easy enough for a confident beginner but engaging enough for a more advanced knitter. Choose the size that fits you and your busy life the best, as well as complements your wardrobe, so the Gowla Warmers will be worn time and time again, in all the seasons of your life.
And be sure to check out the Gowla Shawl that inspired these warmers.
