Rowan Lattice Armwarmers from Carousel’s Alpaca Soft DK Collection
is a super-soft Fair Isle accessory designed by Martin Storey. The two-color rib,
tubular and creative color change-up in the patterning make this a fun and
interesting project. The arm warmers are knit in the round from the bottom up. Rowan
Alpaca Soft DK is a luxurious blend of wool and alpaca available in a gorgeous
color palette. The tight plies provide excellent stitch definition, making this
yarn a fantastic choice for this Fair Isle accessory. The Fair Isle pattern
is in chart form only.
