Arm Warmers! For the Making of Warm Arms!

Arm Warmers 1, originally uploaded by exoskeletoncabaret.

And, well, I needed an instant-gratification sort of project.

First set of stretch jersey arm warmers, handmade. One side is chocolate, and the other is heather grey. The embroidery is olive green backed with grey. I found the fabric at a local shop called Stitches.

Machine embroidery was done freehand with a zig-zag. Who needs 800 fancy-pants computerized stitches when regular ol’ zig-zags look rad?

Here’s another shot of Willow modeling them.

Like these? Let me know and I’ll make some more pairs in the same/other colors for Etsy.

    Oh…god…armwarmers! I’ve been on such a kick lately, but it’s not actually cool enough out yet to wear them! Hmmm…

    But yours are fantastic! Quite unlike any others I’ve seen!
