It wouldn’t be a holiday romance if there wasn’t something for us to swoon over. But the iconic meet cute isn’t all butterflies and fluttering eyelashes. Sometimes those flying sparks look more like instant loathing than love at first sight. Sometimes it’s the start of a comic misunderstanding that will escalate scene by scene. The course of true love never did run smooth, and there will always be a few bumps along the way. That might be the best part. We know that no matter what the plot might throw at them, these two people will always arrive at happily ever after, together.

The Meet Cute Socks are cute and comforting. Designed for plump DK yarn, they’re a very speedy knit and super snuggly, perfect for kicking around the house on a frosty morning or for cuddling up on the couch on movie night. They feature a stylish “antler” cable panel down the front and are finished with a heel flap and gusset and a round toe. The pattern includes 4 sizes, so you can whip up a pair for your favourite folks, and find your own perfect fit, too.
