Days are getting shorter, temperatures are dropping and it’s time for you to knit a new pair of socks! The Early Winter Socks have a lot to offer. Worked from toe-up, you will start the journey with some fun and easy increases. Then, the main slip stitch pattern will give your socks their personality. Along the way, you will turn the heels without even losing your momentum and before you know it, you’ll be back on the highway of slip stitches and ready for the cuffs.

I designed the Early Winter Socks to accommodate all levels. The adventure is easy enough to be your first pair of socks or just a casual Netflix night project.
