There’s a celebration of scouting built into Sachiko Burgin’s Merit Socks. “Scout insignia inspired shapes make interesting geometric designs that are both easy and intuitive to knit. You can really get creative with the colour combinations for these!” she says, and there are ten gorgeous shades to choose from to make them your own!

Socks are knitted in the round from the cuff down using double pointed needles (DPNs).
