Cuffs / Fingerless Mitts "Winter's Dreams", knitting pattern

“The flowers of spring are winter’s dreams!" (Khalil Gibran)

Arm warmers are a nice accessory, especially in the transition period, when you don't really want to wear gloves anymore, but still want to have warm hands. The Lace Pattern with the small bobbles reminded me of sprouting tulips, which slowly but steadily push themselves out of the ground after the cold season and soon bloom. In bright colours they defy the last winter winds and let us already imagine spring!

The arm warmers are knitted in rounds and rows. 2 different Lace Patterns with small bobbles form the decorative element while a Rib Stitch Pattern provides good fitting. 2 variations are described: Cuffs (without thumb hole) and fingerless mitts with thumb hole.
