[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Cane holder

[Tracy Carcione]

Hi Henry.
Needle knit.  
It's about 4 inches wide, and long enough to hold my husband's Ambutech
folding cane, either of the models he likes, with an inch or so sticking out
the top for easy grabbing.  
What details would you like?
Tracy

Hi Tracy, what size loom did you use? Or, didyou needle knit or crochet it?
I am interested in learning more about it.
You can write to me privately with the details if you want to.

I finally knitted the cane holder I've been pondering for a while.  I'm
calling it a cane sock, because it looks a lot like a tube sock.  I didn't
create it with a toe, though.  I made it more like a really skinny hat, with
basically a flat bottom and long sides.  I put a double spiral of purl
stitches up around the body.  I had imagined it would be candy-cane-like.
It's not, but it's nice.  I doubled the top over, so it's sturdy and doesn't
roll.  I put 2 strands of i-cord to serve as belt loops.

I made it of navy blue cotton.  I used Dishie, from Knitpicks, which is a
sturdy worsted that washes well.



I believe Terry P also made a cane holder.  I'd be interested to hear the
details, and from anyone else who may have made one.

Tracy
