VINTERsocks

When I designed the VINTER socks, I had in mind a quiet winter’s day, with snow falling slowly, gradually covering the world. I thought of cozy days at home with candle light, warm blankets and the smell of cinnamon in the air.
The VINTER socks are worked cuff down and have a well-fitting heel flap and gusset construction. They feature two sections of beginner friendly colorwork. The short and easy-to-remember repeat is a lot of fun to work and creates a beautiful stitch pattern that reminds me of falling snow.
The pattern includes 6 sizes, so that you can make the VINTER socks for all your loved ones.
