Just knitted a leg warmer
by Carrie
(Boston, MA)
I just knitted a leg warmer and it's turned out to be too big even after I felted it and shrunk it for the person I'm making them for. I'm wondering if it's possible to split the leg warmer in half and make it into two leg warmers. Is this possible and how would i do it??? Or do I have to throw this one out and start over?
Thanks!
YOUR ANSWER
Do you have a sewing machine? If you have felted the leg warmer really well you should be able to cut it without your knitting unravelling.
But to be safe I would run two lines of zig-zag stitching (or a similar stitch) down either side of the place you want to cut first.
