We are living in a time when many of us might feel disconnected, uncomfortable, lonely, sad or anxious. COVID-19 (and 2020 on the whole) has affected us in different ways, but we have all been affected. My hope is that this pattern offers relief and community further proving that “We are all in it together.”

This pattern is for a plain sock. But with this sock pattern I see an opportunity to bring knitters together in doing good. Think of this as a very informal knitalong. There are no winners or prizes. We are united in knitting and in giving, if we are able.
