I saw that Babysteals.com had BabyLegs up today, but of course they sold out fairly early. At 58% off retail, you could buy 4 pairs for $20--$5 each, plus shipping, which if you have ever bought or coveted BabyLegs, you know is an awesome deal. But, what if you could get them even cheaper? For less than $5 and 45 minutes of my time, I made three pair:
Now, I couldn't be as choosy with the cute patterns, but that was only because I was shopping for little girls' knee socks in the off-season. I did find some cute ones in women's sizes at Target on clearance for $1 or less a pair, and made Katie some leg warmers for dance as well. This tutorial describes exactly how I did it, although I also clipped my seam close to make the seam less bulky.
If you're wondering why anyone would want these (I have had two people ask me), here's a link to all the great reasons listed on the BabyLegs website.

I'm going to show my sister these--she will be so excited! :D
I made some by cutting the foot off the socks. They don't fray and it's kind of a nod to the 80's. Cute stuff, keep it up. Two weeks left!
