Knitting On Ice
Save 10% on this pattern now through 7/20/21, no coupon code needed discount is automagical!
Get retro and knit up some extremely cozy and totally 80’s tastic legwarmers! Mohair held double with sock yarn makes these fuzzy legwarmers hold in a lot of warmth so you can skate on without getting cold ankles. Pick a self striping yarn for a bit of extra colorful fun. This pattern features customizable calf shaping for the best fitting legwarmers that can be scrunched up if desired or can be worn up on the calves so they won’t fall down. They look absolutely adorable over some cute boots! The name of the pattern is inspired by one of all time favorite Animes, Yuri on Ice!, which is also the inspiration for the self striping yarn color I used.
