A textured sock worked with only knits and purls, and suitable for both men and women. Four sizes (S, M, L, & XL) are charted so you can make these socks for almost anyone.

In Emma, the main characters take a trip to Box Hill and have a picnic; this stitch pattern reminds me of a picnic blanket. It’s a turning point for Emma when she gets in so much trouble with Mr. Knightly for being cruel to Miss Bates.

I originally designed these socks are for my dad for his birthday. My dad is a lot like Mr. Woodhouse -- he dotes on his two daughters and enjoys his collections, but without the hypochondria.
