Peachy Keen Socks
A cuff-down sock construction that uses a sock set in a slightly different way. The body of the sock is worked in one colour, while a contrasting mini is used to add interest to the sock. A fun lace panel resembling a peachy centre is worked around the leg and a little colour work leaf detail is worked just before the toe. All you need is a 20g mini to work these little details on your sock. Have fun playing around with colours or even use two different colours!
