A classic pair of socks is one of my very favorite things to knit especially in winter. Every December I seems to do a hard reset on my knitting and knit a BUNCH of socks. Leading up to the holidays it’s all I want to work on. I prefer a vanilla sock, but I wanted to create some simple details to add a little flair to these.

Pine Bough includes some simple striped ribbing in the cuff, heel and in the arch (optional) to add just enough interest without being a big “thinker” knit.
