THINKING FLOWERY SLIPPERS TODAY...

Phil is digging up the bathroom floor today...trying to stop the shower in the kitchen!!! fingers crossed it works this time was so pleased with the bathroom at 1st now l hate it...boo hoo!!

More thoughts on the flowery wrist warmers....and thanks for message Lucy you were the inspiration...thanks great minds an all hehehe x..........

Really want to make a jacket with long wrist warmer sleeves but slippers will be quicker and as l've already got a rippling big blanket on the go all ready......not so sure l should ever start BIG projects l loose interest so fast and move on the new fields...hehehe

SMALL IS BEST ME THINKS!!

Managed to finish my swap 12 granny squares to post today...not so sure they will get there though b***** stikes!! ggggggrrrrrr

LEFT OVER FLOWERS

Got carried away with the left over flowers this morning added a few to the wrist warmers...bit of fun now got to make more to make a pair!!

RIPPLE WRIST WARMERS

Great way to use up all those teeny weeny balls of yarn you have left over

Made a couple of pairs of wrist warmers after taking my daily dose of Inspirational Attic24
Had thought the simple ripple pattern l was using would be a real easy pattern to convert to a wrist warmer....liked the point over the hand and palm...just added a loop to the point to go over the middle finger so the glove stays in place quick to make too

SIMPLE PATTERN:

24 CHAIN….4 TREBLE INCREASE OF 3 TREBLE IN NEXT STITCH
THEN 4 TREBLE AND A DECREASE OF 3 TREBLE IN NEXT 3 STITCHES (RETAIN THE HALF TREBLE AND PULL YARN THOUGH ALL 4 LOOPS ON THE HOOK TOGETHER)

THEN REPEAT AGAIN…..24STITCHES ALL TOGETHER


I used Double strand DK or chunky on a 6mm hook the last 4 rows done with a 5.5mm hook (HAND AREA)


FINISH with a single crochet and a 6 chain loop at the front point to go over middle finger…keeps the glove in place….looks quite Medieval too!!

Again thanks Lucy for a fab idea...Attic24 wrist warmers here
