K3, P3 Hand Warmers

This knitting project came about when Aaliyah said that she had a hard time getting warm. Since we always pick a sibling to get a present(s) for Christmas, instead of getting presents for 8 people, I got Aaliyah as my person and I decided to make her a pair of hand warmers.

I created my own pattern using ideas from other patterns, that I found on Ravelry.

Cast on 36 stitches using the long tail method*.

Row 1: knit all the way across 
Row 2: K3, P3 all the way across

Repeat these two rows until you reach your desired length then bind off. I made them 7 1/2 inches long.

Repeat pattern to make a second one.

I made these using straight needles and used the tails that I left at both ends to sew up the edges. But it is super easy to make these on double pointed needles if that is what you prefer. And I used a size 8 needle, unfortunately, I don't remember the brand name of the yarn that I was using.

*If you don't know how to do the long tail cast on method, which I hadn't ever done until this year, here is a link to an instructional video that helped me.
