This pattern is part of the welcome distractions collection.

Designed to soothe the busy mind:

• slipped stitch colourwork (only 1 colour per round) - easy to work, but enough to keep you distracted.

• main section is knitted bottom up and then knit the cuff top down- this way you can size it exactly as you like and don’t have to worry about running out of MC yarn.

• addictive - once you’ve made one - you’ll probably want to try other colourways

• the pattern has both charts and written instructions, so you can choose the way you prefer to work

• 2 charts are provided for ease of knitting - one for dark MC, one for light MC (no mental gymnastics required)

NOTE - although the Rimu is called DK, I find it knits up like a Worsted or Aran yarn.

Many thanks to the testers:
