"Save My Wrist" Warmers

warm, delicate, yet surprisingly bad-ass

I made these one day after I played a gig because I was just so fed up with my wrist rubbing against my bass when I play and causing layer of skin to peel of and hurt for days afterwards. I wanted something that would look stage worthy yet fit to my arm and not be horribly chunky. These were perfect. I now wear them to school, outside, everywhere.

Sadly I didn't make these with the intention of giving out the pattern at first so I have no pictures of the process. This is also my first pattern so I hope it all works out okay.
