When my daughters were very young leg warmers were all the rage thanks to a certain dance movie. Im actually very glad to see these making a return because when you live in cold weather, every extra layer helps! This is a very nice pattern but I do wish there were a few more photos and a bit more detail on how to resize this pattern. I have a couple of toddler granddaughters in mind and the child size is going to be way too big.

OMG. This is another surprise crochet pattern for me. I remember my daughter's high school days. I bought her a knitted leg warmers because I did not have the energy and inspiration to do crochet projects yet. Now I can do these this for my granddaughter. I'm just so excited. I can many pairs in any color if she wants to. haha. But this Purple Butterfly Crochet Leg Warmers are really so beautiful.

Very cute and the perfect accessory item for school age kids to wear under dresses for this winter. Cute pattern with the openings throughout the pattern and the blue color used is awesome. This is easy to customize to whatever color you need by changing the color or even texture of your yarn.
