Thank you so much for this pattern! I used it and they fit perfectly :) I'm just a beginner and the pattern was very easy to follow. My crutches are much more comfortable now! :)
I want to add that this is the ONLY pattern I could find online and I'm so glad I did! Haha thanks again :)
Thank you for posting! I am so glad you like it!
Thank you for the pattern!!!! I was getting sore under the arm, These really help.
Thank you for sharing your patterns. I am confused somewhat. If I'm reading right you crochet the grips in a circle. How are attached to the grip? Thank you in advance.
Tammy, I made them as a circle. To put them on the crutch handle grip I actually unscrewed the pin that holds the handle grip in, slid the cover on and then screwed the pin back in. Hope this helps!
OK, that makes sense now. :-)
Thank you for the quick response.
For some reason it turned out far too short and didn't fit the handle :( I was a little confused how to decrease so that May have been the problem.
i love your idea on these crutch covers. i would love to give you credit for the pattern,its perfect! thank you for sharing it! but what is your first name dear, couldnt find it on here...
Thank you so much for these patterns! I brought home my first pair of crutches today after a nasty misstep caused me to possibly tear something in my right knee and I already have bruising on my arms from the rubber tops. I can't wait to make a set to make the crutches a bit more bearable!
Thank you for great pattern! Had surgery last week and am breaking out from my crutches.
what a great idea, who knew. I'm trying to print the pattern, but my copier doesn't want to work, so I may have to write it down. I hope I don't have any trouble doing this, I enjoy helping in any way. Do I send them to the same address as the beanies?
I to love to crochet. But sometimes I have a hard time following written directions because of comprehension. I would love to see you do some viedos on any of your projects 😉. Thanks for the crutch cover though I will get it if I read it enough 😀
Have a question about the grip covers. Is it a continuous round, or do you slip stitch at the end of each round? Sorry if this question was already asked. I read through other comments. Thanks.
Having some trouble with the counts throughout this especially when it comes to the decreases. At the end of round 3 I have 3-4 I worked stitches each time. I keep count and I’m still having trouble
