Night Skies Socks
When I started designing this pattern I imagined myself back at our camping trips, sitting around the bonfire staring at the sky, looking for the stars.
This summer we went camping when the comet Neowise was passing over Ontario and it was such a wonderful thing to experience with the kids.
So this design is totally inspired by the sky and the way the treetops look when you look up.
Do you like staring up at the sky? Do you like naming the constellations?
