To make my crochet wrist warmers I have used, baby aplaca yarn which is hypoallengenic , ideal for those of use who have delicate skin (click HERE to read my article on hypoallergenic yarns) . As aplaca yarn is 7 times warmer than standard sheep’s wool my crochet fingerless gloves are delicate (not your usual bulky crochet) & light weight. The nature of the bpdc & fpdc create a double insulated fabric out of the fine fingering yarn which will keep your hands lovely & warm.

Wristlet without thumb hole: Using the long tail align the crochet face to face (therefore you seam will be hidden inside), sew together the foundation chain to the final row of your crochet, matching each stitch up one by one. Fasten off & weave in your ends. Repeat for the second wristlet.
