Seven Level Candy Cane Forest
“I passed through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of swirly twirly gum drops, and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnel.”

These leg warmers are certainly a sweet-treat, and the best part? You can whip up a fantastic gift (or just a quick something to keep YOU warm!) in a viewing of Elf (or at the least in a weekend if you get interrupted to go sledding, sing carols, or make sugar cookies!)

Mid-Calf Circumference:

Gauge: 20 sts/24 rnds = 4” in Stockinette Stitch.
Yarn: Malabrigo Arroyo, 100% Superwash Merino Wool (335 yards/306 m, 100 gm/3.53 oz) 1 skein Natural (C1) and Cereza (C2).
Needles: US 4, either use dpn(s), a 12” circular, or a 32” circular and work them in magic loop- totally your choice! Also one set of dpn(s) to work I-cord. (And size needed to obtain gauge!)
