I'm a teacher and our school was having a themed 80s dance. I wanted legwarmers to wear when I chaperoned. I ended sitting the dance out because of a migraine, but I finished the legwarmers anyway. They are so soft! I think they look kind of silly, but I don't know that legwarmers have ever looked good.

You can find pictures, a link to the pattern, yarn-type, hook size, and all that good stuff in this entry (http://camura.blogspot.com/2005/04/legwarmers.html) at my blog (http://camura.blogspot.com/).

Legwarmers are actually back in I think. Stitch N' Bitch has a knitted pattern and I see girls wearing them in England.

Yes, they're back alright! I also see women wearing them with high heels here in Sydney. I like yours. Very Flashdance!! :D

Trendy, yes, attractive, no. But I like them because they are comfy and I can pretend I'm a dancer when I wear them.

I LOVE your legwarmers!! I used the same pattern and wore them all winter here (it gets to minus 40, brrr). I fancied mine up more by adding a row of boa yarn at the top.
