Free Crochet Pattern - Pop Tanklet made with hosiery yarn
I wear an anklet on each foot and feel not fully dressed when it's not there. Unfortunately, the clasp broke on one of them so couldn't wear it any more. After a few days, just decided I needed something to take the place of the broken one. So I made one with pop tabs and hosiery yarn.
Why hosiery yarn? Because it's stretches and is extremely comfortable.
Materials Needed:
- Pop Tabs: clean/same size - 17 or # needed for fitting
- Size F crochet hook
- 1 pair Hosiery Yarn of 2 different colors
- Button
- optional - Scissors, Needle
- optional - Needle Nose Pliers
Option Pre-Step: I just think it gives the finished design a much more cleaner-polished appearance without the leftover can piece from the pop tab. It's very easy to do. Grab needle nose pliers and working in back of pop tab - starting at corner of piece and pop tab, begin pulling off piece moving the pliers around to opposite edge.
Pattern:
Join primary color in first pop tab (hole on the right) with a slip stitch, make 2 single crochet stitches in same hole, lay a second pop tab over first pop tab - right hole of 2nd pop tab over left hold of first pop tab, make 2 single crochet stitches in next pop tab going through top and bottom holes.
