Wrist warmers "Lotus", knitting pattern, 2 sizes

Everything in life has 2 sides and often just the hidden side is particularly beautiful in a surprising way! So, with the wrist warmers LOTUS! You can wear them on both sides, either with the right side out (as they are knitted) or inside out. So, you get 2 models in one go! Like a Lotus blossom, the wrist warmers caress your hand with their "calyx". This plastic looking Lace Pattern is as interesting to knit as it is to wear. I am always fascinated by the moment when such a pattern suddenly develops from a flat into a somewhat three-dimensional knit! A simple Rib Stitch Pattern is following, makes your wrist warmers fitting close to your arms.
