Make Fleece Leg, Glove,Neck warmers and Glove Liners by Hand or Machine

Step 7 Assembly - Leg Warmers

 6 a)  Make casing for elastic: fold the bottom of each leg warmer up 3/4 inch and pin.  Stitch around edge with zigzag stitch (or  X stitch if hand sewing), leaving  a  1 inch opening for the elastic.

6 b) Cut 2 pieces of  elastic 12 inches long  for the  leg warmers.

6c) attach safety pin to end of elastic and insert elastic into casing. Secure ends of elastic together.

6 d)    Stitch  opening closed.

6 e) to prevent the elastic from rolling,  stitch  through casing and elastic at 2 points  opposite each other.

6 f)  repeat steps 6 a) through 6 e) for the other leg warmer

Your leg warmers are ready to wear.  Note:  I made these leg warmers very wide so they will scrunch up around your ankles and trap the heat.
