ELOISE

“She laughs at rules and lifts her chin,
A sort of wit beneath her grin.
No lace and vows will stake her claim,
Eloise writes her own last name”.

This is the 2nd pattern in the Bridgerton Sisters Shortie Socks collection, designed with Eloise Bridgerton in mind.

The Eloise Socks are shortie socks that are knitted cuff down with a lovely simple stitch pattern so these socks will fly off your needles and are sure to become firm favourites.

The Eloise Socks are knitted using a slip stitch, heel flap and gusset construction, and my Swirl Toe, but feel free to substitute your own particular favourites.

The pattern is suitable for beginner knitters through to more experienced knitters. I would recommend using tonal / semi-solid / solid or a lightly speckled yarn to define the texture pattern.

This is a written pattern (without charts).
