Have you ever worn crochet leg warmers ?

What is it about legwarmers, especially crochet leg warmers they immediately bring to mind, that TV series FAME!
If you are of a certain age, you will most likely remember ‘Fame’ the series. I watched it avidly. I loved Bruno (the musician with the huge dreamy brown eyes) I longed to attend that NYC. stage school. Haha what was I thinking? It wasn’t even real, and I can’t sing, dance or act. Simply a teenage dream and quickly forgotten. I did however make it to New York city many, many times.

The first thing of my hook in 2016 is a pair of crochet legwarmers, why? Who knows, they happened to catch my eye. they looked easy and are pretty. Will I wear them? probably not.

As I hooked them up that song rang through my head over and over…
