New Orleans, Louisiana.. iIt is darn hot and muggy during the summer in New Orleans, and if we’re being honest, spring, fall and sometimes even the winter can be more than a bit on the humid side. Locals combat the high humidity by cranking up the air conditioning. Public buildings are often kept so frigid as to resemble nothing as much as a meat locker. So despite the fact that it may be 100 degrees outside with the heat index, New Orleans’ ladies find themselves needing little something fluffy to protect from indoor chills at work. Garden District Needlework’s Julia Houston to the rescue! These charming silk mohair wristlets keep cold air off tender hands and wrists while weighing almost nothing and leaving the fingers free to fly along the keyboard. Go full-on feminine with lace and floral trim or be a bit more conservative with a plain or button edging

This pattern is only available in the e-book, Deep South Knitting.
