Indulge in a rhythmic cable and lace motif in the decorative Forager Socks! These sweet springtime accessories are a joy to knit and to wear, thanks to the gorgeous color shifts and soft fabric made by our yarn, Filly. This yarn is wonderful for warmer weather thanks to its luscious blend of fibers. Soft merino wool, summery cotton, a touch of polyamide, and a kiss of PBT creates a fabric that is smooth, sturdy, and features just the right amount of elasticity.
