Like most people who knit, i hate to wate yarn… I love to use up every scrap!

I made Lani’s legwarmers to match my daughter’s legwarmers, and before I knew it, a whole Dance Outfit had sprung into being.

Do not be afraid of the Craft Tulle! Stitches are picked up through the Tulle, just like with meshy ribbon yarns. Sewing needle and thread are only used for buttons/snaps. If you are using snaps or velcro, simply ignore the 2 buttonholes worked in Leotard.
