*Early* Crochet Everyday.. It can be done!

For whatever reason in the last blog I promised the blog post by Dec 1. While in my mind I was typing Jan 1. It's called a brain fart lol. My bad ladies and gents. To fix my error I will be posting the OOTD featuring a crochet I item starting today. Since it is freezing in NY and we are officially a few days into our second "real" snowstorm( we have had five but three don't count because of skimpy snow amounts),this one is dropping gobs of snow. In an attempt to stay warm and keep money(instead of paying a crazy high heat bill). I wear these leg warmers around the house. I slid my calf boots over them when I go out, they add a good amount of warmth for outside. They wear well with any legging,jegging or skinny jeans. They are easy to make and can be made to fit(longer or shorter). If you wear these with combat boots you might want to use a thinner yarn for a more sleek look. You could also just make the top portion of the leg warmer( the wider part of the calf) as a boot cuff or just make the bottom as an ankle warmer with timbs or combat boots. This may all sound hard but it's not just practice making the leg warmer before you start working with the versatility of this pattern.
