The Circle Club 2017

This sock has been released as part of The Circle Club, a collaboration between Clare from Knit Share Love and Joy from The Knitting Goddess.

January | Bold Red Tempered with Grey

Inspired by this deep, opulent shade of red, the first instalment of The Circles Club 2017 features cascading circles of twisted ribbed, punctuated with mini cable twists, creating a striking sock.

While not overly complex this magnificent cabled pattern requires a little bit of concentration, perfect for immersing yourself in as you ease yourself into the year.

There are variations for the heel and toe, meaning you can customise these socks to suit your needs.
