Learn to knit simple stockinette stitch leg warmers with this easy to follow pattern. These basic leg warmers are designed to stretch from the top of the calf to the bottom of the foot, and will be scrunchy when worn at the ankle.

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.

This classic design works well for ballet warm-ups. These leg warmers are also great as part of an 80s themed costume. And they are warm and practical; wear them with leggings or as boot cuffs to keep cozy.
