Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Hand-made presents? Sure! But I just can’t see myself make or wear knitted wrist and leg warmers anymore. So I sewed them. In all kinds of materials, faux fur, fleece, velvet, fur, leather, denim… I made all these six different accessories in one day and I think they make great presents. Except: Most of those, I really don’t want to give away anymore. Sigh.

Material Notes
faux fur, fleece, velvet, fur, leather, denim, whatever left-overs you have!

I totally understand the not wanting to give them away. It happens to me all the time when I make gifts. But, man, I like some of these!

WOW! Those are fabulous! I love the zipper cuffs. And the belted cuffs. And the belted leg wamers. And… shit, I love all of them! And all that fur and velvet look soooo cozy. If you’re going to give those away, can you give a pair to me? _
