The Margo Socks are show stoppers!! They are simple and rhythmic to knit but keep your interest and the end result is a gorgeous pair of Art Deco inspired socks. I am sooooo happy and thrilled with how these turned out and I hope you love them as much as I do! Every time I slip them on my feet I can’t help but smile!
Happy knitting my dear friends!
