Step 1
Take an old pair of pants (preferably ones that aren't too tight at the ankle) and cut off the legs a little higher than you want the Legwarmers to come.
Step 2
Flip them upside down so the rough hem(the one you just cut) is towards the ground. Try them on.
Step 3
If they are too loose, you can add a thin piece of elastic to the tops and sew over it.

If they fit well,you can skip this step.
Step 4
Last, you can hem the bottoms or just leave them alone, like we did.
Step 5
You now have two legwarmers and some extra to make something else with. Enjoy!
