Professional crafter Vicki Howell has designed a set of wrist warmers based on an official Summit released photo of Alice Cullen. Knit wrist warmers would probably not be on the list of fashion trends, but for the fact that anything Twilight related is now considered chic among teen circles.
Says Vicki about her creation:
When a professional knitter and a movie critic live in the same household, there's bound to be some crossover. In our house, that convergence takes form as "Movie Mondays" on my blog. Every week I post screenshots of the knitwear I spot in one of the many flicks we're watching — we've become veritable eagle eyes of Silver Screen yarn; my sons even commenting when a beanie or blanket flashes across the television. Recently, while researching Twilight for his movie news website, smellslikescreenspirit.com, my husband came across this photo still of Alice wearing fingerless mitts in the upcoming sequel, New Moon. Enter this project: simple wrist warmers for a complicated girl!
The entire list of materials and set of directions is posted at Craftzine.com.
