    I have a pair of one-size-fits-all wool knee warmers that I can use like full leg warmers or like knee warmers, depending on how I pull them on and bunch them up. Pretty handy. And I'm 5'7" with a 32 inch inseam. I also have a pair of lycra knee warms in my size that are only knee warmers.

    So enjoy you knee/leg warmers, paigette.
    Oil is good, grease is better.

    me too...

    I am short, too...and though trying to loose weight is one of my biggest priorities, I am on the heavy side. I love summer time, when cropped pants are available...I don't have to hem them and they are the perfect length for me. My bike tights have easily, an extra 8 inches in length...bummer!!! I thought about getting knee warmers, but whats the use, they'd be way too long...sleeves are a problem, too...

    I have given up on knee warmers. I bought a pair of Terry regular leg warmers that actually fit, without the 8 extra inches (well maybe a couple). I have a pair of tights by Hind that also fit perfectly. They are not padded, so i can wear them for other activities. The ones I got first, from Nashbar are huge on me. I also have a pair of Ibex wool tights for x country skiing. They also fit well and I wear them mtbiking and for the winter road rides I do once in awhile.
