Catch of the Day
THIS IS A KNITTING PATTERN, NOT SOCKS. Please read the pattern description.
Though Shark Week may have ended, I’ve decided to keep this promotion on as a bundle! You can get Shark Bait, Little Nibble, Catch of the Day, AND Small Fry as a bundle for only $15! Use coupon code “Aquatics Bundle” upon check out.
Catch of the Day is inspired by Reddit’s r/knitting trend of taking pictures with finished socks as if they’re a recently caught fish. The whimsy of the trend required an equally whimsical pattern!
This pattern has a continuous scale pattern across the body of the fish, an eye socket so you know where to sew on the eyes (as well as the option to omit button eyes), fins, and curled lips!
Please Note: Fish Lips Kiss Heel by Sox Therapist would be a wonderful substitution if you do not want to work a heel flap!
Questions? I’m happy to help! Please use my email address linked at the top of the pattern, NOT Ravelry messenger.
