I found this idea on a blog the other day and thought it was genius! L hates wearing tights because they are always inching their way down or bunching up around her waist. The solution...baby legs! They are long enough that she can pull them up on her thighs to wear under a dress or skirt, or bunch them up below the knee to wear as leg warmers. (I have also seen them worn as arm warmers!) Here is a tutorial on flickr. I found it easier to simply cut the toe and heel off of the socks, and use the left-over piece folded in half to make the lower cuff. I can't wait to find some cuter socks and make some more!
I love that idea, I will have to try it. I have been wanting something like that for Violet.
