Day One - Pirate Armwarmers

Made armwarmers from too-tight tube socks. They’re black with pink stripes and white skulls-and-crossbones. The only sewing was the hem at the bottom to stop them unravelling. Super-easy.
A write up–with lovely pics from my crappy camera–of what I did is over on my journal.

These are so rad!! I love ‘em!
Heh, my socks wear out too fast for me to ever be able to do anything cool with them. Have you noticed sock quality has greatly deteriorated as of late?
Thanks for the inspiration! This post inspired me to do this http://www.thing-a-day.com/2008/02/14/some-birdy-loves-me-armwarmers-cuffs/#comments
