Leg Warmers!


I finished up the leg warmers for my friend's daughter.
I'm so excited to send these off to her!


I love these colorful rainbow types

The cabled leg warmers are going to be soo cute!


And these sparkly striped ones are going to look great pulled up or slouched!

Adjustments

I discovered last night a little error in my design for the cabled legwarmers.  They "shrink" in length when you put them on because they stretch wider.  This was an interesting find, so I had to start over.  I made a few more changes in the pattern that made it easier to finish off.
I had a visitor while we were doing the picture taking...
Now to let the hands rest for awhile!!

Getting Lots Done

I wanted to post some picture of a few of the projects I'm working on. 
My friend asked me to make some legwarmers for her little girl and I was very excited to get started!
I made these very colorful ones


I also got started on these.

I LOVE cables!!
I found the inspiration from  neonsilika.
I used her pattern to give me some ideas and made some changes to make it my own.  I can't wait to finish the other leg on this pattern, but first need to make sure it fits right! Thank goodness my daughter's legs are about the same size.  Only thing with using my daughter as a tester is I have to always promise to make her some too...

I also have plans to make another pair with this fun yarn combo! 
Its going to be AWESOME!!!

I've also been S L O W L Y working more on my daughter's hexagon blanket.
I've got tons of the colored centers and I'm trying to piece them together.
I now have 5 rows done.

I'll keep you updated as I go!
