To celebrate its release, the pattern is 15% off with the code WINTERSFERN until Sunday, March 3rd, Midnight, CET.

These socks are a sibling design to the Winter´s Fern hat and a fun little project.

The construction is very suitable for beginners, and the colorwork pattern keeps it interesting for more advanced knitters. You will be rewarded with a beautiful pair of handmade socks, that keep your feet warm and cozy.

PATTERN NOTES:

The socks are worked from the cuff down, with a colorwork motif at the leg, and small colorwork dots at the bottom of the leg and throughout the foot. The socks are worked with a slip stitch gusset heel and classic wedge toes, which are then closed by grafting top and bottom stitches together.
