I've not done much color work, and in particular, I've avoided doing Fair Isle work. However, when I saw the grey/off-white version of these wrist warmers in Debbie Bliss's winter edition magazine (I didn't know she had a knitting magazine), I just couldn't resist. The original pattern called for knitting them "flat" and then sewing them up the side, but I could see where the seam was even in the photograph, so I redid the pattern and worked them 2 at a time in the round. I understand why she did them flat: it's hard to get the tension right going around the edges, but I think I finally got it as seen here. They look good even on Jim.
