Cane Handle cover

Due my knee pain with OA I began using a cane. The grip on it is rubbery and I don't like the smell of rubber. I have 4 crank knitting machines and the good old Barbie/Mattel one with 16 needles is just right for making a sleeve to cover the handle. I use fun fur and the results are a funky handle. I didn't take pictures of the St. Patrick Day cover, it was a hoot. I used the bright green fun fur and covered it have way down. I was my Sheleighy(sp) for the day. Afterward I reclaimed the yarn for another project. I have a stash of fun fur and I'm having a ball picking out different colors for the handle.



The instructions are for a crank knitting machine with 16 needles. Knit as many rows you want to cover the handle and part way down the cane. (I didn't count how many rows unfortunately)so you will have to quessimate it.
