Reversible Arm Warmers Using ITO Sensai

The Design “Weightless warmth!” Knit in two colors, the two layers of these soft, scrunchy cuffs are designed like our Inside Outside Cowl and can be pulled through for infinite variation—from color tipped to color blocked to completely reversed. Pick two colors and give these arm warmers your personal touch! We knit these Reversible Arm Warmers in two colors of ITO Sensai, a sensational lace-weight strand of 60% mohair and 40% silk. Sensai knits up into a gossamer fabric–weightless even in the doubled layers of these arm warmers! And then there’s the color palette—Sensai floats between ethereal pastels, go-to-neutrals, and rich brights. So many fun options from which to choose!

KNITTER'S NOTES For the love of tiny needles! These arm warmers are a perfect little treat to work in between chunkier projects and so wearable. With a gauge this fine, they give the look of a chic sweater cuff under the sleeves of a blazer or jacket without all the extra bulk. Reversibility gives you two pairs in one! While we have opted to use the same yarn in different colors, we think it would look mighty fine in different yarns of the same color. Mix and match to your heart’s delight! While you’re knitting, keep an eye out for dropped stitches every few rounds. Our test knitters recommend keeping a tiny crochet hook at hand for rescues. Digital Reversible Arm Warmers pattern.
