One Skein Knit Leg Warmers
Yarn
Knit Collage Spun Cloud in French Vanilla (100% wool; 100 yds, 200g), 1 skein (For a replacement, look for 100 yards of a large super bulky yarn, something that gets 1.5 to 2.0 stitches to the inch in stockinette stitch)
Needles
US 11 (8 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge.
Notions
Darning Needle
Gauge: 10 sts and 15.5 rows to 4″ in Knit 1, Purl 1 rib pattern on US 11 needles
Sizes & Measurements
Size Options: Youth (XS, S, M, L, XL)
Diameter 11.5″ (12″, 13″, 13.5″, 14.5″, 15″)
Length 13.5″(12.5″, 11.5″, 11″, 10.5″, 10″)
Pattern
Cast on 28 (30, 32, 34, 36, 38) stitches.
Row 1: *(Knit 1, Purl 1) Repeat from * across row.
Repeat ribbing pattern for every row until piece measures approximately 13.5″(12.5″, 11.5″, 11″, 10.5″, 10″) or desired length.
Bind off. Cut end and bring tail through last stitch, leaving a 1 yard length to seam up leg warmers.
Seam two sides together with the mattress stitch. Weave in all ends.
NOTE: Consider splitting the skein in advance, by weight (use a postal scale to split the weight of your skein in half) or by measurement (with yard stick or measuring tape). That way, your leg warmers will end up of equal size, even if the gauge wasn’t measured quite right, or if you’re knitting off-gauge.
