Stay-Up Legwarmers

I just finished some fall legwarmers for myself. They started as an excuse to use an interesting colourway of Noro Kureopatora (colour 1004) but they feel like little hugs for my calves & ankles! The yarn, as ever, is lovely and fun to work with, plus it stretched waaaaayyyy further than I expected and I only needed ONE SKEIN to make the pair! Noro Kureopatora is a light, airy and warm single ply blend of merino wools (the more air a yarn holds the warmer it is). I used 12″ circular needles which made the knitting faster than double pointed needles. I’m going to wear my legwarmers right now, but they also make great holiday gifts!

I LOVE my legwarmers!  They are among the best things I have ever made. I wear them under my pants all winter, and they peek out under my pant cuffs like a red crinoline.  They also keep me toasty warm. 🙂
