8 Crazy Nights Socks
Celebrating the 8 nights of Hanukkah, this sock was inspired by the menorah sitting on a table with the Star of David above and all the gifts, gelt, and dreidels on the table beneath. A beautiful time of family and togetherness can only be made better by a few pairs of these!
Bonus Content: Instructions on how to tweak this pattern for a cowl!
