The Flower Sprinkles socks are an adorable colourwork sock pattern. Perfect for stashbusting, the leg of the sock features simple stranded colourwork and the foot of the sock is plain stocking stitch so speedy to work, and not uncomfortable in your shoes!

The pattern is designed in 7 different sizes ranging from children to large adults. It also includes instructions on how to adjust the sock length, allowing you to create a shorter or longer fit to suit your personal preference.

Use larger scraps and knit your colourwork in one yarn, or work each motif in something different for greater stash usage and more whimsical socks!
