Knitting A Warmer ~ Double Crochet
I don't know how well this represents my character but I know I have always loved a warmer since I was little.
I had a handful of them. Every time I go to the market to buy I will always make sure that I have little balance with me to buy one or two of them.
My mother complained a lot, my warmer usually goes with a sweater which is also a warmer, body warmer.
It came to a point that every time I wanna knit, it always circles between knitting a head warmer, neck warmer, or table cover. I knew how to knit other things but I just didn't like knitting other things.
Knitting is one of the many things I love doing and I don't know if beading can be considered as needlework cause I do loving beading too even though I haven't shared my work for a while now except for the ones I did some years ago
For this project, I needed just two wools to make it.
I choose white and red color wool, my best color. My best color is red and I usually like accompanying it with white color because the two go well and looks so much better when combined
It took me about three hours to finish this work and I must say, I was really all out to finish it up. I would have continued with the knitting but it was already too long and anything longer than this for a warmer, I really don't know what they will call it lol.
The reason why I knitted it in the pattern you are seeing is because I wanted to have it stretched. I learned there are specific types of wool that has the elasticity ability naturally, I couldn't find such wool around here so I bought the normal knitting and braiding wool we have here and used the step pattern to help it become a little stretchy.
I have really missed knitting and sharing my needleworks in the needlework community but I hope to pick up that skill and continue in the best way I can.
Thanks to #OCD for such an opportunity to be able to start knitting again, I am truly grateful.

I will be gifting this to my little cousin when I visit them. I am so glad to be able to participate in this contest and yes, the needleworkmonday community was already a community I loved so much since when I knew about it some years ago and I used to share my works then.
Thank you once again for going through my post and I really hope that the purpose of this highlight contest is accomplished.
Nice crochets, I like the combination of colours, red and white-my favourite colours. I watched my mother knit when I was a child, though she worked using machines, and not hands, she was good at it. There are so much opportunities in knitting as long as new designs are introduced.
Great work
Yeah, you are right. Thank you, dear. I appreciate your comment
You're welcome
Nice work girl
Thank you sis Udy
Hey @zellypearl! Yes, you did well in touching on the topic of this contest. Although I don’t always have a warmer on I like to be warm. I get cold so easily so I am always wearing socks, house shoes and a robe lol.
I think the red and white couples well together too. Your hat turned out very nice and I love how bright it is.
Thanks for your entry ~ 🙂
Oh really? I am in love with anything that keeps warm since I love winter. I am glad this was appeasing and thank you for the compliment
