Strollin' Portland Socks
This pattern was originally published as For Yarn’s Sake’s contribution to the 2017 Rose City Yarn Crawl, March 2 – 5, 2017 in Portland, Oregon. It is available for download individually or as part of our 2017 Collection: Portland Pastimes 2017 Rose City Yarn Crawl Pattern Collection.
When the sun comes out, so do Portlanders, walking their dogs, pushing a stroller, or enjoying the Northwest beauty with their best friend or partner. Do it in style with a colorful, flashy pair of socks. Strollin’ features 6 neon colors against a variegated black and white speckled background. One sock is knit from the toe up, while the other works from the cuff down. And both are finished with an afterthought heel. Wacky!
