Misty Turban & Wrist Warmers

Misty is a perfect first project to give a new knitter confidence.  Warm, fashionable and easy to make, this uncomplicated design is made using garter stitch and gives an introduction to finishing techniques which gives Misty a professional edge.  Knitted in garter stitch only and on medium sized needles, Misty is quickly finished but still looks accomplished and stylish. This patterns 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
