LILAC HONEY SOCKS by Twinset & Purl

Designed for the August Installment of the Botanical Yarn Sock Club 2023. The twisted stitch pattern I chose for these shortie socks reminded me of honeycomb hexagons making me think of bees and honey. The colourway that Sophie dyed for this month is a stunning lilac, hence, the Lilac Honey socks!
