Pattern is featured for the Summer Sock-a-Long hosted by Scheepjes, running Aug 9-30 2023. Want to join in the Sock-a-Long? Read all about it here.

After years of knitting socks this is still my favourite pattern.
The Classic New Leaf Socks are knit from the toe up, which
makes it easier to try on the socks for the right fit and allows
you to make the most out of your yarn.

1 ball
Yarn B:
Scheepjes Downtown (50g/200m; 75% Merino extra fine, 25% Nylon)
