Sanna Landscape Legwarmers
The Sanna Landscape legwarmers are about long wintery walks along Sanna Beach, on the Ardnamurchan peninsula on the west coast of Scotland, surrounded by wild winter beauty and blustery weather.
The crochet legwarmers are worked from the bottom up, in turned rounds on both the RS and WS of the work.
The legwarmers are fully customisable, and can be tried on at any time, simply increase or decrease as required to fit the leg shape with the desired ease.
