Has anyone used these? Seems to be a perfect solution for my speedy handles but how do they look in real life? Anybody a fan, or not? Anybody with photos please share if possible .in my area there's only one lady making them and pretty reasonable I'm just not sure if they're a right style for me.
Crochet handle covers, yay or nay

Personally I'm not a fan. Although I will confess to not seeing them in real life. To me, they look a little too old fashioned. Something about crochet reminds me of my grandmother's house way back in the day. I would prefer twillys.
Exactly what I was thinking, but didn't want to offend anyone by saying "grandma-ish"!
if you are looking for away to cover them and dion't like the look of the Bandeau , how about these?

While I am personally not a fan of the look, I don't think I would look negatively upon anyone who chose to use them. As with everything, if YOU like it, do it! I certainly feel that the look can work for some 
I agree, there are some ladies who have a cutesy look to them, even if it’s nothing I would wear, I can appreciate them having their own style and doing their thing.While I am personally not a fan of the look, I don't think I would look negatively upon anyone who chose to use them.

I don’t do twillies either but it looks nice on other people, I say do what you like, why not?
Those are interesting, the "love handles". I mean, I haven't bought any of these crochet covers, because I don't necessarily like them, although I can appreciate the effort made ...it's just not a style that I feel goes with a purse of any price range, really. I'm not exactly a huge fan of twilly wraps either, but I probably just need to get a better quality or different material; there's a huge price gap and only a few different types local to me.
I haven’t seen them in person, but a lot of people make and sell them online for a pretty low price.
I’m not a fan personally, I think it takes away from the bag a little. But that’s just my opinion. I know a lot of people do buy them. They sell on Mercari all the time.
It does seem like a great way to protect the handles if you have vachetta.
But wouldn’t the rest of your bag patina at a different rate since the handles would be covered?
I dont like the look of those at all. Reminds me of something my nana would use. I understand the struggle of vachetta though. I got tired of worrying about it so it got to the point where I would only buy LV's without it.
I think these are fab. Seen these before and just ordered a pair for my rose poudre emp speedy. They're not too big, you don't see them whilst carrying, and quite subtle so not too obvious when not carrying!
Thank you!
