I'm in love with baby leg warmers. My daughter doesn't like tights and there's always a fight when it comes to diaper changes. But the designer legs can cost upwards of $12 plus shipping. So I found a blog on how to make them out of ladies knee high socks. So super easy and you can make 3 pairs for about $8.
Start with a pair of knee high socks
Make 4 cuts in socks - see below
Take the largest portion of the foot and reverse fold so that the right sides match. Then sew lengthwise and turn rightside out to form a cuff.
Turn the leg portion inside out and then place the cuff inside until all 3 rough edges match. Place 3 edges in sewing machine and sew them together. I went around the cuff 2 times to ensure it held.
Trim thread, turn right-side out and voila!
I was on a roll and made more. You may notice I goofed a little on the orange and black cuff. But still wearable.
