Red Licorice Wrist Rest
When I polled my friends and fans on social media about an office item that they really wanted and needed, a keyboard wrist rest cozy was one of the most popular. Most of the office projects in this book have been on the savory side, so I wanted this last pattern to be sugary and sweet. Keyboard wrist rests come in a variety of sizes, and I picked one of the larger ones as my model so that the cozy might accommodate whatever size you happen to have in your office. You can also fill the cozy with polyester stuffing instead. Either way, I hope your sparkly new candy-coated wrist rest helps you comfortably complete your next big typing project, like maybe your crochet book!
