These ballet calf-length leg warmers have been designed to be lightweight, breathable, and stretchy without falling down. The elegant combination of lacework with an overlapping illusion creates dynamic movement, perfect to compliment a dance!

Construction Overview:
This accessory is worked in the round, bottom up, seamless, and can be worked on double-pointed needles, or by using the magic loop method with circular needles. The accessory should fit with approximately 1.5”(4cm) to 2”(5cm) of negative ease around the mid calf, 1”(2.5cm) to 1.5”(4cm) of negative ease around the ankle, and the length should span from the ankle to below the knee. The shape slightly increases in circumference from the bottom up to accommodate for the natural shape of the calf.
