Worked in the round these simple wristwarmers are the perfect introduction to Canopy Fingering and an opportunity to play with color. The stripes are beautifully blended with a subtle colorwork round between bands of solid color. These warmers are a gentle introduction to working in colorwork in the round with little need to catch and tension floats as you travel up the project.
