Mock Peas & Carrots Legwarmers Pattern

$5.00

By Yvonne Ellsworth

After my baby was born I knit him a pair of legwarmers. I just loved how they looked. I knew he needed another pair, but a little fancier. One of my favorite patterns in colorwork is peas & carrots, so I thought I would use a simple slip stitch pattern to mimic it. These are definitely the high fashion legwarmers I was going for.
