80's Style Legwarmers
Being a child of the 80's, I figured 'hey, why not come up with a crochet pattern for leg warmers?'
so here it is....get your hooks ready!
Please read the pattern through before starting, theres directions showing how to easily adjust the legwarmers size.

I suggest listening to Madonna or Bon Jovi songs while wearing or crocheting these :)

materials needed:
worsted yarn, crochet hook size 5.00
gauge: 6hdc=2"
2rows=1"
finished size: about 11" long, depending on how long you want them to be

Make 2:
row 1: ch 42 (for adults) ch36 (for kids), sc in next 4 sts, hdc to last 4 sts, sc in last 4 sts, ch 1 turn
working in Back Loops Only from now on:
row 2: sc in next 4 sts, hdc to last 4 sts, sc in last 4 sts, ch 1 turn
rows 3-?: repeat row 2 until piece measures about 8" wide
to close, fold piece in half and sl st along end to close. work thru both thicknesses.
finish off and weave in ends.
enjoy :)

*note* this pattern can easily be adjusted for size.
for a smaller legwarmer, instead of ch 40, try a lesser number of chs.
also, for a tighter or wider fit, just adjust the width by adding or taking away rows.
