About the pattern

Cozy and protective, these leg warmers can be made in any length or width, to accommodate any size of leg or need.

The ribbing at the top and bottom makes them stay on and the simple rippling lace pattern adds interest.

Made in wool, they protect your legs from the mud and the splashy puddles. Enjoy walking outdoors with these on your legs or make a longer version for ballet class.

Use acrylic for easy washing or a fuzzy wool if you’d like some extra warmth around the ankles.

The pattern includes full instructions and charts for all the different sizes and a photo/graphic tutorial for seaming the leg warmers, as well as an easy read version.
