Postmodern Legwarmers

I started working on Stefanie Japel's Postmodern Legwarmers in mid January. I needed something to knit from stash, and I had told my sister that I would make her a pair of legwarmers some time ago. Since, winter is almost (hopefully) over and there aren't too many holidays between now and spring, I've decided to make these legwarmers and save them until next birthday/christmas. It will be like killing three birds with one stone, as the saying sort of goes.

They knitted up pretty quickly and easily. I finished most of them while watching movies or T.V. All I have left for today is to sew up the side seams and make some i-cord, both of which are simple and fairly fast. Unfortunately, because the yarn is a fluffy mohair blend, I will have to knit the i-cord rather than use my little gadget. I am too afraid that it would get caught and tangled.
