Until 13th December when you buy Carino Socks, you get Gerda Socks for free. Just add these two patterns to your basket. No code needed!

Carino Socks are worked cuff down, seamlessly in the round with a heel flap. The leg of the sock is knitted in colorwork pattern while the foot is made in stockinette stitch. The pattern and the name are inspired by one of my favourite childhood tv series - Karino. It was a story about a young girl and her horse.
