Tuesday Tutorial - Winter Accessories

The way this year has flown by it probably won't be long before winter arrives.   I thought I would share some cold weather tutorials today.

You have plenty of time to get some of these items made before then.   And they would also make great Christmas gifts.

These are classic leg warmers that are back in style again.   Tutorial to knit these is on Fave Crafts.

I love these fingerless gloves.   I wear them a lot in the winter.

Crochet pattern instructions at Crochet Spot.

How about some cute animal hats for babies.  Instructions to make these is at Serendipity Crochet.

And we can't forget scarfs. Here is a beginner knitting pattern from Dana Must Knit.

Hope you enjoy making some of these fall/winter accessories.
