Trendy Wristers

So spring/summer is here finally! The season of blooming flowers, colors, liveliness, ice creams and also sweaty pigs like humans! ;)

As it has been a long time since I had posted any CROCHET patterns, here is a simple yet elegant, trendy and airy pattern just for spring/summer!

Now, you would say who wears Wristers in summer?

Well sweethearts don’t judge a book by its cover! Unless you have made these pair of trendy and elegant with relative easiness I assure you that you’ll wear them everywhere!

And the best part? - Its free size and stretchable, anyone can wear them anywhere!

So let’s get started shall we?

In this pattern I have used a new stitch-created by me of course- which I call THE BLOCK STITCH. Because when you make it, it’s kind of like a block but HOLLOW!

All you will need:

1.   A neutral color yarn like – white, black , grey or beige (neutral so that you can pair them with any outfit)
2. ·         A 4.0 hook
3. ·         Your wrists!
4. ·         Optional: the opposite color ribbon

Pattern:

•   Chain 26.
•  Slip stitch in to the first chain to form a ring
•   Chain 1
• Single crochet in first chain and in each chain across. Slip stitch in to the first single crochet.(26 sc)
• Chain 2
•  Half double crochet in first single crochet and in each single crochet across. Slip stitch in to the first half double crochet. (26 hdc)
• Chain 1
• Single crochet in first chain and in each chain across. Slip stitch in to the first single crochet. (26 sc)

NOW COMES THE FUN PART!

•  *CHAIN 5
•  SKIP 2. Double crochet in to the third half double crochet stitch.
• This creates the first block stitch.
•     Chain 2, skip 2 and double crochet in to the third half double crochet.  Continue to do the same across. Slip stitch in to the 3^rd chain(9 blocks)
•   Chain 1
• ·         Single crochet in first chain and in each chain across. Slip stitch in to the first single crochet. (26 sc)*
•    Repeat from * to *. You get 4 rows of BLOCKS
• Chain 2
•  Half double crochet in first single crochet and in each single crochet across. Slip stitch in to the first half double crochet. (26 hdc)
• Chain 2
•      Half double crochet in first single crochet and in each of the next 22 single crochets. Stop when 4 single crochets are left(22 hdc)
• Chain 4
• Slip stitch into the 2^nd chain  of the previous CHAIN 2

This creates the cavity for the thumb

•       Chain 2
•          Half double crochet in first single crochet and in each single crochet across. Slip stitch in to the first half double crochet.(even on the four chains) (26 hdc)
•          CHAIN 5
•          SKIP 2. Double crochet in to the third half double crochet stitch.
•          Chain 2, skip 2 and double crochet in to the third half double crochet.  Continue to do the same across. Slip stitch in to the 3^rd chain(9 blocks)
•          Chain 1
•          Single crochet in first chain and in each chain across. Slip stitch in to the first single crochet. (26 sc)
• OPTIONAL :As these gloves are free size, they may not be tight for everyone and be a little looser for you. If that is the case , then you can get some ribbon, insert it inot the fiorst block stitch and tie a bow!

 ALL DONE!
