Like the delicate lace of frost forming on winter glass, the Dusting of Frost socks capture the beauty of nature’s artistry in soft, cosy stitches. This design features a stunning lace pattern on the front and stocking stitch in the back, giving knitters a restful rhythm and allowing the lace to take center stage.

Along the edges of the foot, a graceful eyelet detail glimmers like frosted accents on a winter morning. The contrasting heel and toe add a playful pop of color, framing the design with boldness and charm.

Knit from the cuff down, the Dusting of Frost socks incorporate a classic heel flap and gusset, with a rounded toe, ensuring a snug, comfortable fit.

With five sizes available, this pattern invites every knitter to create their own frosty masterpiece, from delicate lacework to timeless finishing touches.

Wrap yourself in the wonder of wintry beauty with the Dusting of Frost socks—perfect for brisk walks, cosy evenings by the fire, or simply admiring the art of knitting in every stitch.
