I am definately going to make a pair of those when I finish my current pair. I don't have your mailing or email addy so send it to me and I'll mail you that book. My email is veganknitter@gmail.com.
beautiful! and you are adorable.
Thanks so much for posting that pattern! That's definitely what I'm going to do with the Calmer you sent me. I was telling my mom about them and almost told her to add that book to my Christmas wish list.
Yeah for legwarmers! Thanks so much for the kind words everyone! One thing I was thinking about though...If I were to make these again, I think I'd have k2p2 rib at the tops and bottoms. I think it's stretchier and holds a little better at the top than the k1p1 rib. But it's best to just try them out on _your_ leg and see how it works. Show me when you're done!
