Hello. I'm Sarah. I rediscovered the joy of knitting after knitting on a pair chopsticks during a game of Trivial Pursuit in 2004. I didn't win that game, could you guess? |

I this is to make an open mesh pattern. I'll type the whole thing here in case anyone is interested! Multiple of 3+2. Row 1: (1tr, 3 ch, 1tr) into 5th chain from hook * miss 2 ch (1tr, 3ch, 1tr) into next ch, rep from * ending 1tr into last ch, 3 ch turn Row 2: (1tr, 3 ch, 1tr) into each 3 ch. loop, ending 1tr into top of turning ch, 3 ch, turn ===================================================================== The Legwarmer Project. <p> PHASE ONE: 1 x striped dark/light pink ball of wool.

The Legwarmer Project.
PHASE ONE: 1 x striped dark/light pink ball of wool. Ist legwarmer attempted on 4mm/6mm straight needles in ahem, stockinette. 2nd half attempted on 4.5mm circular needles.
PROBLEMS:
- Didn't make enough in terms of length.
- The tops curl over in a slouchy way. This is not good when it reveals wonky coloured-stitching on the other side.
- ::PHASE ONE RETIRES:::
Legwarmer Project Number Two/
PHASE TWO ALPHA: 1 x ball of black sparkly wool. 1st legwarmer on 4mm straight needles. 2nd half of legwarmer attempting on the same 4.5mm circulars.
PROBLEMS:
- Attempting to seam up the ones done 'on the flat' after several pints in the pub, whilst not knowing how to seam at all. I still wear them home, but in the cold light of day they look ridiculous.
- Casting on 55 stitches at the top is WAY to big for my legs, causing legwarmers to fall a little beyond acceptable. Arses.
PHASE TWO BETA:
1, Undo the ones done flat. Redo on circulars with 45 stitches cast on. Oh dear. This stretches the wool rather a lot.
- Cast off very tightly to try and avoid the falling down too much problem.
- Cast off too tightly and cannot get legwarmer over heel.
Legwamer Project Number Three:
About to commence. Will try 50 stitches on straight needles as the wool has been pretty stretched anyway.
