Memories of Easter holidays past; the vibrant day-glo colours of the 1970’s; plastic Easter baskets, grass, and eggs of the 1980’s; super sugary goodies and treats. The ritual of donning “Easter best” clothes, including little lacy Sunday school ankle socks and the requisite Mary Jane style shoes.

Easter Grass are sweet, little ankle socks worked from the toe up with a shadow wrap heel. An easy lace and twist pattern knits up quickly, making them a snap to finish during the holidays.
