This pattern contains instructions for making the pastel rainbow leg warmers pictured, including various sizes. Of course, you can substitute any colours you like. They also look great in bright rainbow, mermaid, and galaxy inspired colourways, so they can be designed to match any outfit.

Sizes given are for 8” calf up to 22” calf, and lengths ranging from 10” to 30”.

Materials:
Yarn: You can use any colour or type of DK yarn you prefer. I am using the following yarn to make my pastel rainbow, and each pair of leg warmers will use less than 100g of each colour:
A: Lilac - Paintbox Simply DK shade 141, Dusty Rose
B: Blue - King Cole Baby DK shade 07, Nil
C: Green - King Cole Baby DK shade 292, Apple
D: Yellow - Paintbox Simply DK shade 120, Banana Cream
E: Peach - King Cole Baby DK shade 59, Peach
F: Pink - Paintbox Simply DK shade 149, Candyfloss
Hook size: 4.0mm hook.
Tapestry needle/yarn needle for weaving in ends.
Gauge: following the first 5 rows of the pattern should give you a piece measuring 7cm tall and 14cm wide, when starting with 39 foundation stitches.
Difficulty - beginner: This pattern requires a basic knowledge of crochet stitches, and I have provided detailed instructions and lots of photos to help along the way.
