Knitting Simple Leg Warmers

A Pattern by Liz Chandler @PurlsAndPixels

Leg warmer knitting pattern, designed by Liz Chandler @PurlsAndPixelsLearn to make your own classic knitted leg warmers with this easy to follow knitting pattern. These simple, traditional leg warmers are perfect for ballet warm-ups. Or pair them with neon stilettos for a vintage 1980’s look to compliment any costume, cosplay, or dress up. Worn with leggings, these leg warmers are comfortable and cozy, and they’ll even fit inside most boots to double as boot cuffs.

These leg warmers are designed to be long enough to fit from the top of the calf and pull over the heel. They’ll scrunch when worn at the ankle. You can easily modify this pattern to shorten or lengthen the leg warmers to fit your needs. Make leg warmers for everyone in your family; this pattern comes with directions for Adult M/L, Adult S, Child, Child S, Toddler, and Baby sizes.

How these Leg Warmers are Made

Materials

Make leg warmers in all the sizes with this knitting pattern from Liz Chandler @PurlsAndPixels.Make these beginner ear warmers with Caron Simply Soft Yarn, a very soft acrylic yarn. Or, you can substitute almost any worsted weight yarn in this pattern successfully; just check your gauge before you start. I’ve found that Malabrigo Rios, a merino wool yarn, makes an excellent substitute yarn for this pattern.

These leg warmers are made one at a time, and worked from the bottom up.

This pattern can be knit in the round in two different ways. Instructions are included for double point needles and the magic loop. Pick your favorite method to knit in the round, then follow the instructions that match your chosen needles.
