When I saw these beige - gray speckled socks I knew I had to have them. They are kids' size but that was exactly what I needed for this project.

This is a simple tutorial how to transform socks into wrist-warmers.

You Will Need (1 thing)

  • Socks

Steps (5 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    You need a pair of socks.
    Cut off the toes part.

  2. 2

    Turn the sock with the heel part upwards.
    Gather the part where the heel is, pin it and hand stitch it.

  3. 3

    Add a decorative button at the place you gathered the sock.

    Take some lace or ribbon to add to the edge.

  4. 4

    This is important!
    You have to insert a tailor's ham inside before you stitch the lace.
    If you don't have a tailor's ham insert another pair of socks or a small pillow.
    Something that will expand the sock. Then (hand) stitch the lace.

  5. 5

    Your new, fabulous wrist warmers.
