I'm done!(EDIT)

Aside from the removable LEDs I still need to get for them, The Iron Man wrist warmers are done!  I was going to put LEDs in the palm repulsers so they would light up, but the only ones I could find were too tall.  If I had tried putting them in there, the repulser wouldn't be as flat as they need to be.

Spiderman pose to show that the repulser is a pocket!

I Am Iron Man(WIP, anyway)


Not a project I can share the pattern for(using one of Twinkie Chan's as the base is why), but I thought I'd share a few pics of what I'm working on at the moment all the same.
Side 1 WIP
It's a double set of Iron Man Wrist Warmers!  Inspired by a friend wanting them, a love of Marvel comics, and a picture of a pair already made, I set about making these.  I was only going to make one pair, but as I was making the first wrist cuff, I said "damn it, I want these too!"  So, I'm making two pairs.

side 2 WIP


Wish me luck on this somewhat crazy project!

Drawstring
With CC2 and G hook, ch 121.  Slst in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across (120).  Weave in ends.  Weave your drawstring through the dc rnd of the bag so you can pull it shut.  Tie a knowt in each end of drawstring, or a big fat bead if you want, to each end to keep the drawstring from coming out of the bag.
Had to make one for my Momma, too.

The finished bag is big enough to fit a standard deck of playing cards and lots of dice in all shapes.  You can easily make a slightly bigger bag by using a H hook in place of the G hook.
