MATERIALS

  • 4 skeins of Madeline Tosh’s Tosh Merino Light. Each skein is 420 yards/ 100 grams; approximately 420 yards total, or 105 yards per color, required. We used the colors Napoli, Alabaster, Milk and Luster.

NOTE: Just one skein would be enough to make a whole pair of hand warmers. Or use all four and switch the colors around to make four slightly different pairs!

OR

  • 4 skeins of Purl Soho’s Line Weight, 100% merino wool. Each skein is 494 yards/ 100 grams; approximately 420 yards total, or 105 yards per color, required. NOTE: This is enough yarn to make at least four pairs of Colorblock Hand Warmers.
