As we wind down the winter season, I wanted to create one last pair of patterns. Taking inspiration from the last throes of winter and first blooms of spring, I also wanted these to be timeless and stash friendly. They also have addicting colorwork that makes these DK socks knit up very fast, so you can get it on your feet before the snow melts.

Thank you so much for your support of Snowmelt. If you loved these socks, don’t forget to check out the matching Snowmelt Hat! Please use the tag #snowmeltsocks to share with me on instagram! Seeing your yarn choices and watching your progress is the greatest joy. Happy knitting!
