The Mitchell Socks are a celebration of Friendship and Hand Dyed Sock Yarn.
These socks were designed for my friend Sara. Guess what her last name is?
This was also the first time I got to use hand dyed sock yarn from Arcane Fibre Works. I’ve always marveled at how they can capture the colours of a picture in a skein of yarn. Their colourways are truly gorgeous! Sara chose the, ‘Little Moments in Time’ colourway, but that is just one of what feels like endless lovely options.
