Notes

Mods:

  • Magic loop.

  • Longer feet.

  • Started increases afte 10 cm/4 inches because I have thin ankles.

  • Working until I finish the yarn.

  • Increased twice after a long knee section, than worked in 2-2 rib until I finished the yarn.

I love them!! They really keep me warm when I’m inside the house (it’s rather cold in winter), so I can pop up some yoga poses anytime, without damaging my muscles…

But they work equally well as outdoors legwarmers.

Note for future reference:

They really stretch after wearing them for a while, so I recommend doing less increases or going down one needle size for a tighter fit (or legwarmers that keep up).
