Is it my imagination?

It may be "restless legs". You can get a feeling of something crawling on your legs and you feel the urge to move them and cannot keep them still. I get it now and them and it is miserable. It usually happens when you sit down to relax or when you get into bed at nite. Just a suggestion.

Do you have a plant in the room? We have a plant in our computer room and sometimes I start feeling gnats or mites around me. Sometimes I see them sometimes I just get feelings as you are describing. I put a drop(just a drop or two-too much will kill the plant) of liquid dish detergent in the water and water the plant. This kills off the gnats. I learned this from my mother.
So, if you have a plant, give this a try.

perhaps mites? I am allergic to paper mites (hence I keep my book collection wrapped in plastic) and sometimes they also munch on cloth (minuscule amounts so we don't notice).

Could be circulation. At night at times I feel something strange near or above an ankle and actually see a tiny vein forming below the skin, but near the surface. Weird but not worrisome. Sometimes there is not sign of anything happening. Probably just nerves jangling!
