Short legwarmers adorned with bobbles are a fun sock-knitting alternative. Pair them with shortie socks in the winter to keep your ankles warm, or wear them as a warm layer on the way to the gym. The Tiny Bobbles Legwarmers mirror each other with their bobbles organized on a background of reverse stockinette bordered by twisted ribbing.
