Looking to Make Some Legwarmers

I need some leg warmers to wear with leggings…surprisingly it was hard to find a pattern. I think I’d like to make it fancy with cabling…maybe. And really, it’s basically just a sock without a foot, but I’m not sure if the top and/or bottom ribbing should be handled in a special way…nor how much to cast on.

Maybe this could be of some help?

Also this link leads to another pattern.

Here’s a link to a free pattern for legwarmers with a cable design…
