Leg warmers

Here are the leg warmers I knitted for myself; I hope they are okay like this.
I used thicker yarn that had to be knitted with a set of double-pointed needles size 4, and since I have thicker legs, that worked out pretty well for me.
I cast on 64 stitches, then knitted a 5 cm cuff in 1 knit, 1 purl.
Then 2 cm in stockinette stitch;
I knitted the pattern by alternating 4 knit stitches and 4 purl stitches, always for 2 rounds, then switching, repeating this 4 times.
Then another 2 cm in stockinette stitch, followed by the pattern from above, but this time I started with 4 purl stitches. I repeated this pattern 4 times as well.
Then I knitted 1 cm in stockinette stitch; the bottom cuff is only 3 cm high because, after binding off, I added one round of half double crochet—this makes the finish around the ankle softer and more snug for me. Now the leg warmer is finished. Have fun making your own

Best regards, Akela
