Uncommon Wristlets

Hairpin Lace and Knit Pattern - Not Finished Items This collection of sexy, fitted wristlets in either gauntlet or opera length, provides options for both knitters and crocheters. Gauntlets are the casual alternative for everyday cold-weather wear. Yet opera-length wristlets not only make a statement, they can maximize a wardrobe by transforming a short-sleeved blouse or sweater into functional winter attire. Fit tips appear throughout the pattern to help you attain a sexy fit: Just say "Yes" to functional style and "No" to saggy wristlets! KNITTED WRISTLETS: A perfect accessory for our Silken Scabbard (pattern available for purchase separately), these wristlets feature a deftly engineered cable motif for shaping to the sculptural contours of the arm. HAIRPIN LACE WRISTLETS: Delicate and lacy, these crochet hairpin lace wristlets feature different edgings for each length - gossamer and demure for the gauntlet, or bold and dramatic for the opera length.   Skill Level Intermediate Skill Level Description Uses a variety of stitches and stitch patterns, simple color changes, simple finishing.
