To celebrate Valentine’s Day I made myself a couple of romantic wristwarmers. They were also a bit of comfort crocheting, ’cause I had a bit of an accident with my bicycle last Tuesday
It wasn’t slippery at all! But my folding bike decided to drop the saddle, which immediately blocked everything and I went head over heels over the steer! A very friendly busdriver (of an empty tourist bus) insisted on bringing me home, with bus and all!!! I was a merely 100 meters away from my home, but due to the narrow streets, we took the scenic route hehehe.
My left knee is a bit swollen and still hurts, my right knee is a bit less painfull as is my right shin. I was shaken all over and decided to make something lovely to easy it. That became the Queen of Hearts wristwarmers. They can be found on Ravelry: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/queen-of-hearts-wrist-warmers or directly on Nikki Edwards’ blog: http://luna-sea.tumblr.com/post/10270503171/queen-of-hearts-wrist-warmers.
The ones I made are 10 hearts wide instead of 6. The yarn I used is 100% cotton by the Dutch company Lammy, called Rio, colour 607. I used the 2.5 mm hook (my favourite!).
Have a nice Valentine’s Day!

Beterschap Ellen, een valpartijtje gaat je niet in je koude kleren zitten meestal. Ik vind je polswarmers prachtig. Dikke knuffel
Dank je, Elzeblaadje. Af en toe moet de zwaartekracht getest worden. Maar fijn is anders…
Ik vind zelf die polswarmers ook super!
Ik vind ze erg mooi geworden, groetjes Erika.
Dank je wel, Erika
