Knitpattern in english – Sakura Sleeves are a pair of wrist warmers that can double for a warm decorative sleeve or a kind of cuff. Perfect for cold days in the office and can easily be styled under a button down shirt or other blouses and shirts.

They are knit on doublepointed needles or a circular needle using the magic loop technique with a small rib followed by the Sakura Pattern and finished with a wavy lace edge.

You need only 1 ball of Cashmere Premium fra Lang Yarns or you can knit 2 pairs in the hand dyed merino.

Level of difficulty 4/5:

Sakura Sleeves is a great project for you, if you have already tried to knit a bit of lace, but maybe have a wish to get even better.

Techniques used are lave knitting, yarn over, SSK 2tog TBL and understanding a knitting charts. There is also a written description of the full chart.

The name of these Sakura Sleeves was decided since the lace pattern resembles branches which lead my thoughts to the beautiful japanese Sakura

After washing and blocking: 8.5 cm (meaning 17 in circumference laying flat) x 16.5 cm in length

If you want your sleeves bigger in circumference then increase needle size by 0.5 – 1 mm. You can easily add another yarn strand if you want the stitches to be a tighter knit. For this I recommend Cashmere Lace fra Gepard Cashmere Lace from Gepard or a Baby Alpaca lace for example Piura fra Lamana
