Here is the pattern for my toddler wrist warmers. It's free to use - enjoy!
Size: Toddler 2-3T
Yarn: Manos del Uruguay 100% wool
Needles: US No. 7 dpn
Gauge: 5 sts=1"
Make two wristlets as follows:
CO 24 sts.
Working straight back and forth in garter stitch, work 3 ridges (6 rows).
Knit one more row.
Next row: join knitting in the round and, changning to three dpn (8 sts on each), work 14 more knit rows.
Next rnd: Work K1, P1 ribbing across all sts. Repeat for 5 more rows.
Next rnd: K all sts. Repeat for 9 more rows.
Next rnd (Thumb hole): K2, BO 5, K17
Next rnd: K2, Co 5 using the backward loop method, K17
Next rnd: K across all 24 sts.
Next rnd: P all sts
Next rnd: K all sts
Continue the above two rnds for 2 ridges. K 1 rnd. BO on the P rnd.
Use the tail from the CO edge to stitch together the small seam made by the first set of garter stitch rows.
Weave in ends.
Give to your favorite toddler and admire!
Enjoy!

I like how you begin working flat and then join in the round after a few rows...you definitely like to avoid purling at all costs! :) It's also useful for making sure you don't start out twisted...like I did a few times making Andrew's sweater!
