These armwarmers have a striking ribbed pattern that radiates out from the inside forearm and converges on the outside forearm. The thumb shaping grows cunningly out of the radiating ribs. |

Learning new skills
Each Yarnomat pattern lists the skills required to knit it. If you do not currently have all the required skills:
- ask a knitting friend for help
- look up the required skills and techniques in any good learn-to-knit book (try your local library), or
- search the web for tutorial pages and videos.
I recommend:
- Stitch ‘N Bitch: The Knitter’s Handbook by Debbie Stoller
- Knitter’s Handbook : A Comprehensive Guide to the Principles and Techniques of Handknitting by Montse Stanley
- knittinghelp.com, and
- TECHknitting.
