ReplyDeleteCool legwarmers. Do they take long? Audrey has been bugging me to make her a pair (long enough that we've bought yarn twice because she changed her mind about the color.)
Are the leg warmers done in worsted weight yarn??
ReplyDeleteyes, the yarn is worsted!
ReplyDeletesorry for any confusion :D
Very nice. How much yarn did they take? I have one skein will that be enough?
ReplyDeleteWould anyone have a pattern for leg warmers for a 3 yr old???

I made these for a Christmas present in worsted twisted with a metallic thread. It took me slightly more than 1 skein of Cascade 220. I knitted them on circular needles which was quicker but I needed 12 inch. Thanks for the pattern.
