Designed with the Thanksgiving holiday in mind, the Gather In Socks feature simple increases and decreases that hug the foot and give your socks an extra cozy feel. The pattern itself is easy to memorize and endlessly addictive – I almost named these socks “the socks that knit themselves” because I found myself unable to put them down! I hope you find them just as enjoyable to knit as well as to wear.
