Popcorn Shorties
Who doesn't love buttery, salty popcorn? How about knitting up some fun little Popcorn Shorties socks while you watch a movie?
Popcorn Shorties are worked toe-up in four sizes. They have have cute little bobbles all around the cuff and a stretchy bobble bind-off – they look like they’re covered in pieces of popcorn!
The pattern is written for the magic loop method – if you haven’t tried this style of knitting in the round before, this pattern is a great introduction!
