Knit identically, these super-soft legwarmers show off a fat 6 stitch cable which separates the beginning and end of the round. Not only does this cleverly prevent a jog in the pattern, but it also serves as a focal point for either the front or back of the legwarmers. They start in the round at the ankle and are worked flat up to the knee, where a tighter rib is doubled over to hold the legwarmers up.
