PERFECT QUICK KNIT
I love wearing slipper socks all year round, but to be truthful most are made in China & in child
sizes despite saying for women I have seen many, many wonderful patterns, all of which
have been knit in the round, which I hate. Getting my thinking hat on I decided it couldn’t be
that difficult to make some knit flat. After I had worked that out, I thought what else can I do
to make these stand out? Hang some poppies off them Hence the name Bonkers socks!
