Inspired by a recent trip to Portugal, designer and Lost Sock Knits founder Stephanie M introduces Sardinella. Knit from the cuff down in our classic sock yarn Starling, this seaworthy design features stranded colorwork that brings sweet and salty sardines and gentle waves over toes. With clear, approachable charts, Sardinella is a happy knit for sock makers of all levels—whether you’re new to colorwork or a seasoned pro.
