kirakira (sparkling) for my girl.
Made as a surprise, back in October last year, received with great happiness - and a wish for more... a cape, wristwarmers... you can't have too much sparkle in your life, can you?!
The legwarmers were improvised, just based on a stitch pattern (to which I unintentionally added one row of stockinette stitch) and a swatch. For getting more width in the upper part I changed to larger needles, keeping the amount of stitches.
The yarn is pretty, not scratchy at all (60% wool, 20% angora, 15%nylon, 5%polyester) and quite durable, as I can already tell since the legwarmers have been worn since autumn. One ball of yarn for each leg, 50g altogether.
Bye!
