Wrist Rest Cover

Designed By Julie A. Bolduc

This wrist rest cover is a result of a need. A need to cover my old ugly wrist rest I have had since I got my computer. This is a basic pattern and could be improved upon I am sure. This particular pattern would look wonderful if made with a varigated yarn.

2 oz Dawn Sayelle Worsted Weight Yarn. Country Blue was used in the example
Size G Wooden Brittany hook was used but Size H aluminum would work also.
Plain Wrist Rest as in picture
Yarn Needle

Gauge: 4dc=1"
Yarn Thickness: 3mm
Finished Size: 18"x3.5"
