The New Legwarmer

 Rond de Jambe by Audrey Drysdale,

Noro Tasogare, color 11 Kainan

Not just for ballerinas, legwarmers are a great layering piece for pairing with boots or just being cozy at home.

The Rond de Jambe Legwarmers by Audrey Drysdale are a modern take on the classic. Knit in new Noro Tasogare, the warmers are knit in the round with nice, stretchy ribbing on a size US 8 needle.

Dyed in the private Noro studio in Japan, Tasogare (“twilight”) transitions from one gorgeous hue to the next as you knit. Each unique colorway plies multi-hued strands together to deliver these exquisite color changes. The yarn features undyed dark brown wool which delivers a deep, more muted palette. Each ball has over 400 yards for uninterrupted knitting!

The signature blend of Corriedale wool, Merino wool, silk & mohair has a subtle thick & thin quality that gives knits gorgeous texture, as well as a pleasing hand-knit aesthetic.
