Leg warmers



I've been browsing through the Next website and thought I might try knitting J a pair of these. They look easy enough for me to do. Silly thing in they cost around £3 to buy and the wool alone would cost me more but it's not about the money. How do they manage to make and sell something like that so cheaply. I might make myself a pair too Laughing

did you ever get a pattern for the legwarmers Leonie?
Leonie2

no I didn't, but I reckon I could just make up my own. this reminds me that I haven't knitted any yet so must look into that. Very Happy

It's a great way of using up all those odd balls of wool Smile
