Cotton Crochet Arm Warmers
Last year I had a neighbour request some cotton arm warmers so I worked up a pair of them completely freestyle and never wrote out a pattern for them. As soon as I posted the picture of them I began getting orders and requests for a pattern. At the time I was not writing patterns, I would have never thought a year ago that I would be where I am today with over 30 patterns available online!
The lady I made the cotton crochet arm warmers for really likes them in the cotton, they do stretch as you use them but you can wash cold and dry them in the dryer. Just make sure you use a laundry bag when you do, then again you should always use a laundry bag for your crochet/knitted type goods and only wash with delicates and avoid velcro!

Hi Debi
I love you patterns but could you tell me are the stitches the same as in the UK as i know USA stitches are different than here in the UK but as you are Canadian just wandering if there are any differences
All the best Gillian
Love your collection of , my daughter would love these…and I know she would want one of each.;-)
Hi Debi I have a question in the patter (rnd 3 states to *fpdc, hdc* in each hdc around) is that 2 different stitches in each hdc? Do I crochet it behind the fpdc? Thanks in advance.
This is one of the first patterns I wrote out, it should read *fpdc in next st, hdc in next st, rep from * around.
Thank you.
I’d love to make these, I wondered if you knew how much yarn you needed to make these? I see you mention what yarn you use but I’m wondering if you use it all? I’m thinking of making these with some similar cotton I have which I why I’m trying to find out how much you used to make these? Thank you.
Probably about 3.5 ounces/160 yards
