Foot for a King
The February colorway is inspired by the Kangaroo Paw Mardis Gras flower.
And the February sock design is inspired by the joyful spirit of Mardi Gras, with a motif of streamers and confetti. You’ll start with a simple ribbed cuff, followed by a bit of cables, yos and colorwork. But don’t worry. After about 20 rows, you can settle into a simple and relaxing stockinette rhythm. Until the heel.
