Slacker Update

Found this at the store and decided that it would be taken apart to be used for scrap yarn, probably a baby blanket for the Navy/Marine Relief Society. I started volunteering my time to make baby blankets since the beginning of February. I have made 5 so far, and still counting!
One of the finished baby blankets that I donated. I got the yarn from a blanket that was going to be thrown out. I got the pattern from mypicot.com
These are 3 rings that I made :)
This is a close up of what I used the yarn I got from the gray sweater.
It is still a work in progress, but it is a cover-up :)

Free pattern for Simple Tapered Leg Warmers

I've been recently frustrated with my crochet and needed an quick, easy pattern to get rid of some of my stash.  So I found a pair of leg warmers... Great!  Except my gauge was totally off because I almost always refuse to check it since it takes so much time and bothers me since i have to pull extra out of my skein....long story short....I ended up creating my own pattern.  Note: These are meant to be more fitted, and you may have to adjust the size. **This pattern is for personal use only, and it took me several hours to create.  Please do not sell this pattern or the final product.  Thanks! These leg warmers are a little tapered at the bottom because I wanted to make sure they didn't just come off or make their way under my heel.  The pattern is worked in rounds and my calves are about 14".  Ch 3 and Ch 2 count as a dc or hdc, EXCEPT for the last round. Yarn: WW- I used Red Heart Hooks: H & I Abbreviations: - st- stitch - ch- chain ...
