Ocean Waves Arm Warmers

My creative focus over the past year has been further away from developing Sayuri Mei than I planned but with a life so full of creativity some things just had to be put on hold.

With the chill of winter beginning to ease I wanted to finally work on something for spring that has been in my head for quite some time. I have had in my stash some alpaca/ wool tweed in a gorgeous blue that reminds me of the sea and I wanted to reflect this in shell/ wave pattern arm warmers. Searching for shell knit patterns I came across a beautiful pattern for a cowl called Song of the Sea. Using the charts for the different size waves in the cowl pattern I designed some arm warmers that are beautifully reminiscent of the sea and are a perfect addition to my spring wardrobe.
