The Olivia Summer Socks are designed especially for Olivia and Oliver Fiber YARN ADVENT 2025.
The SUMMER sock set is used here.

The socks are loaded with cute textures. There is a super easy and beautiful DANDELION pattern run-ning on the front of the sock, framed by a purl st bar on the sides. Back of the leg is knitted in K1, P1 rib with cute little bobbles here and there. A contrast color incorporated in the cuff makes a sweet detail at the top.

The Sferenta Socks have toe-up construction with a fun heel flap and gussets construction where NO picking up stitches is required.

Instructions are written for magic loop technique but can be easily adapted for DPNS.
