This toe-up sock is another in my series of “shortie” socks - perfect for wearing with trainers, without leaving too much sock on show. It combines an easy to remember textured pattern, with a stunning double rolled cuff. This design has the added bonus of being perfect for using up leftovers. Feel free to play with the colours, mix and match and come up with something completely unique!
