Snowflake Socks
**
Christmas Sale: 3 for 2 across ALL my designs until the end of December. Add three patterns to your cart and pay for two. (Cheapest item free)
**
The Snowflake Socks are knit from the toe up with colourwork on the foot and leg, and a texture stitch in between.
The pattern has a wedge toe and a Wrap and Turn short row heel, however the heel and toe can be changed to your own choice. They are knit using the magic loop method but can be adapted to suit dpns.
The pattern has written instruction and charts for the colourwork.
Sizes: Small/Medium
S 64sts 8”/20cm foot circumference
M (72 sts) 9”/23cm foot circumference
Foot and leg length can be easily adjusted.
(Guide Note: the larger stitch count is to accommodate the colourwork. The 72 stitch equates to how a 64 stitch sock would usually fit.)
