look what i've knitted on holiday in sweden! (legwarmers + wristwarmers)

[monalisa_lazysmile]

as the tv programme wasn't that exciting (just three channels, actually) i had some time for knitting in the evenings... these are the results:

a pair of sparkling stripey purple and black legwarmers (inspired by my FRUITS book  )

sorry, don't know why the photo got so dark...






and some kind of hand/wrist warmers:

I looove the legwarmers. They are certainly eyecatching, without being loud. What yarn did you use for it? You have skills.

Wishing and hoping that those sparkly purple and black yarns are widely available! Sooo yummy!

Haha, 3 tv channels - that's what you get for visiting Sweden 1, 2 and 4, right? My granny also only has 3 channels.

I really like the wrist warmers, they look soft and so cozy!

They both look great!  I have to agree with the masses, though, that the legwarmers are especially cool.    

However, I have to throw something in about your shoes!!!  I love them!  Wherever did you get them??  Or were the stars a craft project, too?  (I have plain light blue low-top converse.)  Sorry to veer off topic, but I just had to say something about them!
