Cables + chunky bobbles + soft acrylic yarn = super cosy
Photos of the knitting of:
Beginning with a K1 P1 rib, stitch markers are then placed to keep track of where the cable pattern is placed and where the bobbles lie.
After the first pattern repeat, the rest of the legwarmer is knitted in needles one size up.
Knitted using flat needles, then a reverse mattress stitch to sew up once they are completed.
I wore them out and about today and they are sooo good. Been wanting to knit these for ages now, just been waiting to find the right yarn.
The pattern is called Luscious Legwarmers; another from Knitted Sock Sensations.
... And the ball of wool is still huge!

Matching gloves & hat, perhaps???
This yarn is sooo ace, it's 100% acrylic but really doesn't feel like it, it's so soft! A great discovery and definitely one I reccommend to vegan and other knitters alike.
