I’m a bit of a gym rat and my toddler grandsons ask to lift weights with me. They’re too little for even the smaller dumbbells, so I made them these…they call them “heavy weights”!
Using a big hook and thick yarn, this quick and easy low-sew pattern is even appropriate for new crocheters.
As with many patterns, it is easy to adjust the look and size of your work using different yarn weights with a compatible hook.
