Knit Police Box Legwarmers


Welcome to the third Doctor Who themed project in my blog! Doctor Who fans should also check out my Amy Pond Police Outfit and my Exploding Tardis Painting tutorials. I have at least one more Doctor Who post up my sleeve as well but with the wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey, who knows when it will get published :).

These legwarmers were a gift for my friend who introduced me to Doctor Who. In the winter during knitting and netflix seasons, I finished so many hats and knitting projects while devouring episodes of this awesome show.

You can find the pattern here and information about the pattern here. The type of puffy paint I used can be found here and I also made a tutorial to explain how to evenly paint the letters. Please let me know if you have any questions about the pattern.


"The universe is big. It's vast and complicated and ridiculous. And sometimes—very rarely—impossible things just happen and we call them miracles." -The Doctor ('The Pandorica Opens')

"The future pivots around you. Here. Now. So do good. For humanity. And for Earth." -The Doctor ('Cold Blood').

The fabric paint I used to paint
 the "POLICE BOX" lettering.

  1. If you were to make one that goes over the knee so they're more like thigh highs, how much would you sell it for? I am looking for Doctor thigh high leg warmers for my Cupid Undie run for charity in February 15, 2013.

    1. Thanks for your comment, Edrica! While I am considering opening up an Etsy shop and selling knit items in the future, I don't currently sell any items. If you know anyone who can knit, the pattern for these is available for purchase. I can definitely give advice on how to make them longer. Sorry!

  2. I would buy the one that goes over the knee as well. Thigh highs/super long leg warmers. :)
