Fern Socks
Two colours and easy knitting - but add in some fresh stripes for extra spice. Fern Socks are all about changing stripes and intarsia, making the knitting experience of this pair fun and interesting.
Fern Socks are worked from the cuff down with a heel flap. the fun striping is paired with easy stockinette stitch to make the socks have some stretch and fit well.
