I have definitely shared how I feel the cold! I’m a lizard whose bones need constant warming. But, when I’m dyeing or when I’m doing a lot of work on the keyboard, I find that my Sockkens get in the way. And so, the Pulse Point Wristlets came about! The stranded colourwork makes them double-layered and each colour uses less than 20g, so they are perfect for either Baa Ram Ewe Pip Colourwork or mini-skeins!
