Arm warmers are one of my favorite accessories when it starts getting cold. Even when I’m wearing sweaters my lower arms/wrists/hands are always cold. It’s not really practical to be wearing gloves around my house, especially since I need my fingers exposed, so arm warmers are the perfect solution for me.
Lately, I’ve had a lot of inquires about them so I thought I would show you the quickest, easiest, and cheapest way I like to make them.
All you need are a pair of long socks (I’m sure you could use smaller, but I like them long) and a cutting implement.
I’m telling you this is so easy you’ll wonder why I’m even doing a tutorial. Anyway, I usually buy the inexpensive socks from Target or Forever 21, that way I don’t feel bad about cutting them up.
step 01: placement
Decide where you want to make the cut at the top. I place my thumb where the heel is and mark the place I want the sock to hit on my fingers. Keep in mind when deciding, the the raw edge will roll down a bit so it will be slightly smaller than your initially cut.
step 02: make the cut
I have found it to be so much easier when you use the sharpest scissors or rotary blade you have. (p.s.

step 03: second cut
Align the cut sock perfectly on top of the other, and while using the cut sock as a guide, cut the other sock.
step 04: thumb hole
With the socks still stacked, find the heel and cut off about a 1″ opening. I eyeball it, but basically I’m just cutting off the curve of the heel like I’ve shown in the photo above. Be careful you don’t need to cut that much off.
That’s it! Takes about, I don’t know, 15 seconds. It’s honestly the quickest project I’ve ever done. Not only are they functional, they keep me quite warm, but there are some really cute socks right now so it’s fun to play around.
Enjoy!
