Leg Warmers Pattern
by Leigh Radford
Directions for this project in One Skein, shown below. Widely popular in the 1980s, leg warmers are making a comeback. They are a great beginner knitting project, plus they really do keep your legs warm. This pair has a subtle rib at one end and a lace pattern at the other, with smooth stockinette stitch in between. Wear the lace panel at the top or bottom, and add a silk ribbon for a romantic touch. Shown in Swish DK Beach Glass.
