The Cinnamon Apple socks are a celebration of colour which enable the knitter to be creative within the pattern and knit a truly unique pair of socks. There are options within the pattern to create scrappy socks, a faded sock, shortie socks and a full sock! I designed this pattern with so many options to allow knitters to tailor the pattern to their own requirements and I hope this includes something for everyone.

Construction:
Instructions are included for both shortie socks and full length socks, and for both toe up and cuff down construction methods. The pattern uses a heel flap and gusset and was designed using magic loop, but can also be adapted to use DPNs. Charts are included in addition to written line by line instructions.
