The Love Came Down Socks are a comfortable, everyday pair of socks with a small but meaningful detail. This pattern is worked from the toe up and features a single heart cable running up the center of the foot, making it a lovely project when you want something classic with just a little interest. They’re enjoyable to knit, easy to wear, and well suited for cozy evenings, gift knitting, or adding something thoughtful to your handmade wardrobe.

The toe-up construction lets you try the socks on as you go, and the heel flap creates a familiar, secure fit. The heart cable is simple enough to feel relaxing, while still keeping the knitting engaging from start to finish.
