New leg warmer pictures! Also Serena Cashmere cowl pictures!

It's been a while since I uploaded pictures! I really try to get a picture every post I think it makes my blog look so much better.

These leg warmers have really come in handy over the past few days. It has been so cold! My jeans just aren't warm enough anymore. Our house has really terrible heating so it feels cold all

the time now.

Now I have also uploaded the pictures for the Serena Cashmere Cowl! It is coming out well now that I figured out there is an error in the pattern. At first it has you dropping the wrong stitch! Naturally this seemed like it was a little strange so I did some research online and found out that other people were having the same issue and it wasn't just something weird about the pattern that I didn't understand.

Pink leg warmer photos

Here are the missing photos from last night. It's funny but the color in the photos is way better than in real life, lol. Also, while working with the yarn I noticed that there are some huge bulges that weren't worked in the strand well. I have decided to just work with it that way. These will be my hideous leg warmers.

Update: The other skein of this color is crunchy. I know it's weird. No bulges thought. I hope that it "uncrunches" when I wash it for the first time but if not it is official, these are my hideous leg warmers.

All new merino leg warmers

As of late my apartment has been very cold. I recently found a pair of size nine sixteen inch circular needles with 66 stiches of stockinette. For the life of me I couldn't remember what I was making at the time. I was too thin for a hat, to big for gloves. I thought it might have been a sleeve but I think if I had planned to make a sweater I would have bought more yarn. I have just two skeins of it. For a short time I thought it was a leg warmer which made me really excited. 

After I finished a few more rows I realized that it was way too big to make leg warmers but I have always liked the look of the loose ankle socks Japanese girls wear. With the thick proportions of my generous calves I have always had trouble finding socks big enough, so I decided to just make them into leg warmers.

All in all, the project was pretty boring. Strait stockinette with get to anyone after long enough, but I persevered.

Update: I thought that these would work but they are way too loose and fall off as soon as I start walking lol. I'm keeping them as pajamas for now but I may end up making them into something else.
