Knitty Gritty Socks are the perfect pair! Knit in the round in a simple reversible Seeded Rib Pattern and knit with the softest Orleans Mink Merino yarn, which is a scrumptious blend of merino, mink and nylon/viscose/tencel, these socks won’t disappoint. Worked in a slightly bigger gauge than the typical fingering weight, these Knitty Gritty Socks knit up fairly quickly and are fun to make!

This pattern is available for free with purchase of kit from minkyarn.com

The light fingering weight yarn is held double throughout.
