Summer Agua Fresca Socks
There is nothing like sipping some agua fresca in a hot summer day while sitting out in the patio and enjoying a family meal.
I grew up in Mexico, so agua fresca is something I always crave and there are so many delicious options. When designing this pattern I saw the colors of the yarn and my mind immediately went to a cold glass of hibiscus agua fresca.
I wanted this socks to be a relaxing, fun and easy to remember lace pattern that reminds me of my grandmothers garden, playing in the hammock with my sisters.
