sock wrist warmers

Transform socks into warmers 

 

This is a simple tutorial how to transform socks into wrist-warmers.

You need a pair of socks.

Cut off the toes part.

 

 

 Turn the sock with the heel part upwards.
Gather the part where the heel is, pin it and hand stitch it.

 

 Add a decorative button.

 

 

Add some lace or ribbon.

This is important.

You have to insert a tailor's ham inside before you stitch the lace.

If you don't have a tailor's ham insert another pair of socks or a small pillow.

Something that will expand the sock. Then (hand) stitch the lace.

Or use  large plastic drink bottle

 

 

 Your new, fabulous wrist warmers.
