Misty Beginners' Pattern

Misty Turban and Wrist Warmers is a perfect first project to give a new knitter confidence.  Warm, stylish, quick and easy to make, this uncomplicated design is made using garter stitch only and knitted on medium sized needles (the pattern includes instructions for both turban and wrist warmers).

As an absolute novice knitter you suggested I try the Misty Turban and Wrist Warmers;  Brilliant!  I finished them last week and am so delighted with the result, the yarn is so gorgeous to use, comforting in fact, I can’t wait to do more. Judith W
