Julgubbe socks are an adorable, comfy and festive pair of socks. These socks are worked top down starting from the ribbed cuff. Then cute little bobbles are created to top the Santa hats before moving on to the colorwork. After the Santas, the rest of the sock is worked in relaxing lyce stitch. This pattern includes a heel flap and gusset construction where the gusset decreases are worked on the bottom of the foot. The pattern includes instructions for five sizes to fit a foot circumference of 18-20-(23-25-28) cm / 7-8-(9-10-11) inches.

Special techniques: Catching floats in colorwork, bobbles
