Just your basic wristwarmers with dark bronze beads on linen-colored yarn. Made for a custom request.
I usually prefer my beads to blend in more with my yarn, so that they are visible in some lights and almost disappear in others. But I really like the contrast on this one. Perhaps it works because there are so few beads-- they aren't overly assertive, but keeps the wristwarmers from becoming too plain.
I wonder what an additional row or two of beads-- maybe in staggered rows-- would look like. Whatever the case, another instance of less is more.
Delightful, subtle and charming!

I like your aesthetic. More beads would take away from the elegance of these wrist warmers.
