Cimidar KAL

"When designing these legwarmers I was strongly inspired by Susie Roger's Reading Mitts. I simply loved this simple pattern, this elegant look!

I tried to design something similar, something matching. Both combined are a great eyecatcher, making an awesome autumn outfit.

The difficulty of these legwarmers is very low. Skills needed are knit, purl, yo, k2tog, casting on and binding off." - by Melanie Berg
