Welcome to the next neighborhood in my Seattle Sock Series: Fremont. Fremont is a beautiful neighborhood probably most well-known for their vibrant arts scene. Sculptures adorn many street corners with the most notable being the Fremont Troll, the statue of Lenin, and Waiting for the Interurban. Gasworks Park is one of the most photographed places in all of Seattle, featuring an incredible view of the entire downtown. The Fremont and Ship Canal bridges are two drawbridges that connect the two sides of the Fremont Cut and the Ship Canal. To learn more about the sights of Fremont, you can visit https://fremont.com/

The Fremont Socks are a bite-sized sampling of colorwork with a folded picot cuff. Two different leg length options are offered, a shortie and a full length.
