Legwarmers. Just can’t get enough! I’ve already shared a knit pattern, but as you know, I am bi-crafty! I truly love being able to knit and crochet. It means my options are doubled!
So today, I give you- Winter Legs, crochet edition!
Once again, I am using the YARN: Worsted weight (#4 medium), 317 yds [290 m], 6.7 oz [190 g]; Shown: Red Heart Super Saver Yarn, Favorite Stripe HOOK: H/5 mm, I/6 mm NOTIONS: Stitch markers (1), tapestry needle, tape measure GAUGE: Exact gauge is not crucial, to achieve measurements shown- 12 sts X 10 r = 4″ [10 cm] in esc in the round with H/5 mm hook. FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: 18″ [46 cm] long, 10 1/4″ [26 cm] circumference SIZE: tween (to fit approx age 9-12 yrs) PROJECT LEVEL: Easy, confident beginner TECHNIQUES USED: ch, sc, sc in blo, sl st, esc ABBREVIATIONS: Ch- chain Blo- back loop only Ea- each Esc- extended single crochet Sc- single crochet Sl st- slip stitch NOTES: Row 1: With sz H hook, ch 8, sc in back hump of first ch from hook, sc into back hump of ea ch to end, turn- 8 sc. Row 2: Sc in blo of ea st to end, turn- 8 sc. Rows 3-33: Rep Row 2. Being careful not to twist, fold the ribbing in half, working in blo of both edges, sl st to end, turn piece right side out so that seam is to the inside- 8 sl Rnd 1: Turn piece so that you will now be working into the side edges of the ribbing just made, ch 1, esc in side edge of ea sc to end, do not join, do not turn- 33 esc. Rnd 2: Begin working in a spiral, esc in first esc, PM to mark beginning, move marker up with ea round. Esc in ea esc around until entire piece measures 4” [10 cm]. Switch to I/6 mm hook. Continue working esc in ea esc until desired length of leg portion, stopping 1 stitch before marker. Sc in last esc of round. This will level out the step created from stitching in a spiral. Upper Ribbing Row 1: Sl st in marked sc, remove marker, ch 8, sc in first ch from hook and in ea of next 7 ch, sk sc previously slip stitched into, sl st in next sc, turn. Row 2: Sc in blo of ea sc to end, turn- 8 sc. Row 3: Sc in blo of ea sc to end, sl st in next sc of leg, turn. Row 4-33: Rep Rows 2-3. Turn piece inside out, with right sides together, hold foundation ch and row just made together, sl st in blo of both edges to seam, fasten off- 8 sl st. Weave in ends. • I hope you have enjoyed this free pattern. Sign up for the RV newsletter if you would like to be updated about: I hate spam as much as you do.
