These leg warmers are knit in the round, from cuff to foot. Leg warmers are worked in 1x1 rib throughout – knit rows are added immediately after color changes for smooth transitions between Color 1 and Color 2. 

The open heel detail is formed by casting off and picking up stitches.

NOTE: TO MAKE THESE LEG WARMERS IN A SOLID COLOR, YOU WILL ONLY NEED 2 BALLS OF DREAM YARN
