ABOUT THIS PATTERN
Short socks are so versatile! With the added bonus of a lovely textured stitch across the top of these socks, they are sure to be among your favorites! This pattern uses ribbing on the back of the leg portion of the sock to create a snug fit, and stockinette along the bottom of the foot. An Eye of Partridge heel flap and turned heel make this a lovely sock as well! Such a pleasure to knit and so beautiful to wear! Try using contrasting yarn for cuff, heel flap, and toe for a fun variation. We sincerely hope you enjoy this fun project!
