Groar! features a pair of jaguars roaming around your legs. They’ll keep you warm and shining while you roam around the city or elsewhere. Colours are chosen from the range found in the jaguar and from the Amazon forest it lives in. The leg warmers are knitted in the round on double pointed needles. Motives from the Andes are knitted on the go in stranded colourwork. The roaming jaguars are embroidered in duplicate stitch after completion of the leg warmers.
