Welcome spring with the Apple Blossom Toe-Up Socks! A neat little Estonian button pattern blooms across the front of these socks, while the sole and back of the leg are in stockinette stitch. Add in a rounded toe, a short row heel turn, and a heel flap that doesn’t require picking up stitches, and these socks will be ready before you say “April showers!”
