Your legwarmers are FABULOUS! Where did you get the pattern for those? I would love to make a pair for my daugher....who has to work outside in the winter taking care of rabbits. She works in a rabbit sanctuary and it gets pretty cold in those barns.

awww, look nice and warm.....

[mercy7]

Thank you all for your compliments. they are lovely and warm and a snug fit too. i will look for the site i got the pattern from and post the link in here for those of you who want it. i have to say that the pattern says to sc in 3rd stitch from hook which includes the one on hook. i found that even sc in 2nd stitch from hook still made it reduce in numbers so i did the first sc in the first stitch and they came out great.

those are really nice, are they stretchy? (my calves are full grown cows)

Daisy, Wonder where we could get the pattern? I saw some on Annie's attic new catalog. These were knitted. But, I do both these crocheted ones she made in pink are really pretty.PINKROSES

ok friends i now have the link for the leg warmers for you all. they are stretchy as you work in back loops and that gives the stretchy feel to them. and they are bigger stitches at the top part.

Oh goodie ! Thank yal both for the links. Now I can keep my piggie legs warm this winter. With arithirs and Diabities I get really cold when it gets cold in the winter. They will help keep me warm. PINKROSES

Lovely color, and it looks great!

[mercy7]

:thankyou mimi so glad you came back and found the patterns too pinkroses. they will keep your legs cosy warm. last year i made some socks which are very warm as well.

[mercy7]

the legwarmers pattern i made is the better pattern as they fit better around the knee area . i started another pattern and it gets so wide and baggy that i need to find a way to bring it back in when i get it long enough. i know which pattern i will do the next time round. hope your legwarmers come out good too. i look forward to seeing them on here ladies

Great job on the leg warmers. I think I will make my DH a pair. His legs are always cold he says.

[Twinnish]

Whoo hoo! Great leg warmers! Now I know what everyone's getting for Chrristmas, heh, heh!

[pinkroses]

I brought some soft pink yarn I am going to make a pair .

My pink is about the same as the pink in the picture.

I might make some socks to. I love knitting them ; but haven't made any crocheted ones yet.

Between these leg warmers and new socks they should keep my legs really warm.

I am thinking on making some hand and wrists warmers too. Our computer is between two windows.

we live in an old house right now. You freeze to death in the winter and burn up in the summer. PINKROSES
