Dying Knee Sock --> Arm/Elbow warmer

[racehorse87]

My knee sock was dying, but I love it too much to let it go. Thus I decided to make an arm warmer. It was a little big for my wrist, and I didn't like the way it bunched up when I hemmed it, so I laced a ribbon around and tied it in a bow.  

It was still a little big for my wrist, so I decided to wear it higher up on my arm than conventionally done (as far as I know).

Hope you like it!





One of these days I'm going to try some fray check on it to make sure it doesn't undo all my work.

Looks nice. Love the colors of it.

A girl and her knee sock: a true love story suitable for all ages.

sock? singular? just one sock? a matchless sock? a sad, lonely, widowed sock?

Well, oddly enough, the other one is still in decent condition. I'm considering wearing the sock and the arm warmer on opposite sides (ie: sock on left foot, arm warmer on right arm.)

Do that. Totally do that. That's great. I love the elbow warmer...my knee-high socks are dying (*cries*) so I might have to try that. Thanks for the idea!
