Funny feather socks
What can I say about these Funny Feather socks? That they make you super cheerful while knitting them! The base is a simple stockinette stitch that slides effortlessly off your needles. The contrasting edge at the cuff and toe gives the design an extra twist. But the icing on the cake is definitely the ‘feathers’ made of variegated wool. You’re best off knitting them at your leisure, nice and loose, for the best result. You’ll just look forward to the moment you get to add another row of feathers. There is a clear instruction in the pattern how to knit these cute feathers: both with chart and step by step photo instructions.

The instructions in this pattern booklet are in 3 different languages (Dutch, English and German) marked with colors . It is easy to follow. In addition, the pattern includes print instructions per language. I wish you lots of knitting fun!
