Notes

My daughter wanted these legwarmers, because she wants to wear a skirt (with woolen tights) in winter AND she wants warm legs.

She decided on pattern and yarn and it was a nice knit. As the yarn is finer, I had to make more pattern repeats.

My mods:

  • Added a small rib at the beginning for a tight fit
  • In total 26 pattern repeats
  • She wanted only a little bit wider ends, so as of pattern No 23 I made always 3 purls.

The yarn is very light, nice and warm, the daughter wont freeze.

Hopefully I get modelled pictures later the day or tomorrow, but it is Saturday morning and a teenager sleeps.

Sunday:
She woke up and we tool a lot of photos.
