Crafty Elements

Well, it finally happened.  After years of debating, and 4 crochet patterns later, I made a skirt.  I've started crocheting a skirt multiple times, but was never satisfied with the outcome.  It was too boxy, not girly enough, not lacy enough, etc. etc.  So I created my own pattern. This pattern is not for the faint of heart, and this is the first time I've tried to make a pattern that fits everyone (written pattern is for size 8).  So I've either succeeded or failed miserably.  But this is an untested pattern, so proceed at your own risk 😊 **As always, I wrote this pattern, so please don't sell the pattern or the final product. Materials: - I hook - Worsted Weight Yarn Abbreviations: - Fsc- foundation single crochet - Sh- shell - Ch- chain - Dc- double crochet - St- stitch - Sp- space - Sl- slip - Tr- treble crochet  Special stitches: shell (sh)-  5 dc in st Pattern: R1: fsc muliple of 9...

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.
