Toasters
I made these legwarmers to keep me warm & toasty under my short yoga pants but the've become a staple for every day use. You can wear them tall or push them down to slouch. I wear them under my pants in the cold weather. Make them plain for a classic, subdued look, in stripes for fun or a variegated yarn for an organic aesthetic (like Black Forest Naturewolle). They go really fast and I like them alot as a gift.
