Spiral Rib Leg Warmers
by Purl Soho
This pattern is
available for free.
MATERIALS
- 2 skeins of Manos del Uruguay’s 5 Ply Merino, 100% Pure Extrafine Merino Wool. Approximately 482 yards required. This color is Cinnamon #512. (NOTE: We no longer offer Manos del Uruguay’s 5 Ply Merino, but choose from one of our other worsted weight yarns.)
- A US 7 (4.5 mm), 12-inch circular needle OR a set of US 7 double pointed needles
GAUGE
24 stitches = 4 inches in spiral rib pattern
SIZE
- Finished Circumference: 8 inches circumference, stretching up to 16 inches
- Finished Length: 30 inches long
NOTE: This size is for extra small to small women. To make bigger sizes, simply add a multiple of 4 stitches. Each additional 4 stitches will add 2/3 inch to the final unstretched circumference and 1 1/3 inch to the final stretched circumference. (Please note that if you increase the size, 2 skeins probably won’t be enough yarn to make your leg warmers quite 30 inches long. You can either make them a little shorter or buy an extra skein.)
