Zigzag Legwarmers
Knit yourself a pair of these playful sport weight legwarmers and you’ll be an intarsia pro in no time! By using two balls of identical gradient yarn worked from opposite ends, a dramatic graphic look will begin to take shape, combining both style and contrast. Worked from the top down beginning with a twisted rib cuff and knit flat back and forth in rows, the intarsia section is capped off with a matching cuff on the bottom edge. The work is then sewn into a tube with a mock placket added on the long edge, topped off with decorative, non-functional buttons. The right and left legwarmers are knit in a mirror-image to showcase the intarsia zigzag pattern.
