Ferngully is a cuff down sock pattern featuring lace and some simple cables. A slipped stitch heel flap and gusset decreases on the bottom of the foot give these socks a great fit. The pattern was inspired by one of my favourite movies while growing up: Ferngully, the last rainforest. The combination of the organic looking pattern and gorgeous chartreuse coloured yarn seem to capture its spirit perfectly.
