Step into the sunshine with me!! Like many knitters, I prefer the winter and often struggle to adjust to warm weather. As summer approaches, let’s embrace the warmer weather together! This sock was designed with new beginnings, happier days, and fresh starts in mind. With the rays of sunshine around the cuff, you will literally step into the sunshine when you put these socks on!
