    I already know how to crochet, however leg warmers are a new project. This was a very easy to follow guide with added but quite important advice for learners or not. Thank you

    I originally wanted to start crocheting 3 years ago but i just abandoned after learning how to chain. 3 years later, i was in desperate need of led warmers and my parents didnt want to buy any so i was stuck with making them on my own. This tutorial is by far the least confusing one and i actually finished my first sets of leg warmers. I never thought i would actually finish them but i did. Thanks

    I'm crocheting some leg warmers for a cosplay, so this tutorial was amazing for that! I've been crocheting for a few years now and this was the first "beginner" tutorial I have seen that clearly shows the difference between a normal stitch and a back loop only stitch -- it helped immensely!

    If you do back loop single crochets or back loop slip stitches in the last stitches of every other row (2-4-6, etc) it creates a tighter ribbed pattern for a cuff. For example, you can crochet 2 inches with blsc or blst and the rest in blhdc and you will have a cuff and a little flare look to it.

  • @natonaa9681
    @natonaa9681 Год назад +5

    This is my first proper project and i've made one warmer so far. It turned out a little too big because i did a bit too many rows and realized after slip stitching everything so i improvised with making a rim and it helped a lot. I'm concerned i won't have enough yarn to make the second warmer and i don't have a way to buy more of the yarn but idk i'll keep you updated. Maybe i'll do the second one smaller, my style's pretty alt either way so i don't really care, it would look good too
    Update: im writing it a bit late, but here it is. So i made the majority of the second leg warmer and ran out of yarn and had to do like four more rows so i did them using a moss green color (the rest was beige) and it still turned out nice, id say even nicer because i wear a lot of green things and not so many beige, oh and i also added the rims to the second leg warmer and its amazing

  • @galasidan
    @galasidan Год назад

    This was my very first project! They look fantastic! I made mine longer so they went up to the knee, ended up being closer to 60 stitches tall. They do desperately want to slide down and a bunch weird around the angles because they weren't meant to be that length but I was able to get them to stay up with an extra length run through the top and tied.
    This was so so easy to follow even though I know none of the terms and I have no idea how to read a pattern or anything like that. Thank you so much!

    @facundocesa4931 6 месяцев назад

    I have two questions:
    1) I did the same but with single crochet instead of half double. The end product looks as cool, to me. Is there a reason to prefer half double? 🤔
    2) Also, at the final step, I stitched the piece in an inverted way, following some instructions I found somewhere.
    Instead of the back loop of the front piece and both loops of the back piece, I did it the other way around.
    Back loop of the front piece, and both loops of the back piece.
    I wonder if some way is better than the other. Yours actually looks easier, BUT I'm starting to wonder if the correct way actually depends on the number of rows being even or odd. 🤔
    Thanks for the tutorial!

    Hi there! I really want to make three leg warmers, but I was wondering how much yarn it uses? I have only a bit left in a certain color and I want to know before I start 😂

    Hi, what if I want mine to be longer? What do I do?
    Thank you for the very detailed video, great content! :3

      At the beginning of the video (around 2:10 in the vid) it tells you to chain 42 but if you want it to be longer you can chain more and mesure it vertically on your leg and adjust it accordingly. Good luck :3 🍀🤞😊💝✨ !

    I made mine a little long because I tought it would fit better but it didn't and it Tunes out too big, but that's ok. It was pretty easy just takes a long time to finish if you're not fast :)

    i want a tighter look on the top but baggier on the bottom and i see you achieved that, but when i try to do it, i meassure around my calf where i want it to be tight, and that makes the panel connect, but down at my ankle i need a bigger flare for a baggier look, how do i manage that
