Inspired by all things cozy and the urgency to create something right now… the Mielle sock set is here to provide you with a quick and engaging knitting experience along with an opportunity to use yarn waiting for a project.

This set is a collection of two patterns, shorty (beginner friendly) and classic (more adventurous), using a common honeycomb like stitch and techniques to celebrate your favorite yarns. The pattern includes modification notes to easily change sock style resulting in many options.

These socks are knit from the top down with a classic heel flap and gusset, rounded heel and toe, and allow for variable foot lengths. The instructions are both written and charted.
