I worked out this pattern while trying to think of something to make a friend of mine which I know she’ll use but which uses relatively little yarn!

Here’s what you’ll need:

Worsted weight yarn in 2 colours (approx 60g altogether).
4mm Crochet Hook
Yarn Needle
Scissors
Difficulty: Beginner

Notes

These arm warmers are crocheted flat then sewn together, leaving a gap for the thumb.

Written using US crochet terms.

These can be made in any size but either adjusting the starting chain length, or adding more rows (or less!). This way, you can also use any weight yarn you like, just make sure you adjust the starting chain accordingly. You can use any colours you like and can change colours whenever you wish - I’d love to see your designs!
