PENELOPE SOCKS by Twinset & Purl

It was a joy to design a pair of socks inspired by Penelope Featherington. The Wrapped Stitch pattern on the front reminded me of the floral dresses the Featheringtons were famous for and the delicate Butterfly Lace on the back of the sock signifies the butterflies that were always present somewhere on their costumes.
