Crossroads Cozy Sleeve Pattern

I started tinkering around with working the link stitch in the round after releasing the Crossroads Dishcloth and Crossroads Scarf in both adult and children’s sizes. My next patterns on the design horizon for my Crossroads Collection are an ear warmer, cowl and beanie.

Being tasked with figuring out the most seamless join possible, I began searching for tutorials that were already available and couldn’t for the life of me find one just for the link stitch. So with some trial and error I found a technique that provides a pretty seamless join. You can find my photo tutorial for joining the link stitch in the round here.

As I began working up a sample for my ear warmer I designed the Crossroads Cozy Sleeve and the Crossroads Cup Cozy. You can find the free Cozy Sleeve pattern below and a paid pattern PDF of both Crossroads Cozy patterns in my Ravelry store.
