Carol arm warmers are both stylish and warm. We have prepared a kit using the same yarn used in the sample, amirisu Sprint.
The ribbing at the wrist is made of elastic knit with a twisted stitch on the reverse side, so the twisted stitches that appear when you fold it over are a cute feature.
You can make "with a hole for thumb" or "without a hole" at your choice. You can use it to warm not only your wrists but also your ankles.
It's fine to knit in basic colors, but we also recommend knitting in pop colors to add an accent to winter outfits, which tend to be dark colored.
Start by knitting the ribbing at the wrist, then knit the main body in brioche stitch. You can make the ribbing and brioche stitch longer or shorter at your choice.

*About Sprint and Sprint Handdyed
Depending on the color of the Sprint or Sprint Handdyed, we may send you a slightly shorter skein, 289m / 96g one. Therefore, we have created a kit with the applicable Sprint/Sprint Handdyed at a discounted price of 220 yen per skein. While the length per skein is shorter, the thickness and quality are the same as regular Sprint.
