These soft, fluffy open work socks are the fastest socks on planet earth! Worked in a luxurious worsted weight yarn, Maypole makes a perfect quick project for the car, commute or movie night; they’re super portable and have an interesting little stitch pattern that’s easy to memorize. When they’re done, you’ll have something very cozy and pretty for your toes. Great for gifting too! The Maypole Socks are worked from the toe up, one or two at a time, and feature the simple, great-fitting Fleegle heel.
