Need a pair of cosy cottage socks? Nidderdale Cottage Socks are quick & easy pair of house socks, suitable for men or women, plain yarn or multi coloured. They are worked in a double garter rib. They can easily be altered by knitting a contrasting rib, heel or toe or by throwing in a few stripes. This is also an excellent way to use up all of your yarn if knitting a few pairs.
