These are a pair of warm and lightweight socks that are a pleasure to have on the needles, and the design creates a beautiful result without being complicated. The graphic colourwork makes the socks interesting from the very first round, and the project grows quickly. The pattern includes sizes for both junior and adult, perfect if you would like to share the joy of knitting with someone you care about. The socks are worked from the cuff down towards the toe.
