STORY BEHIND THE PATTERN
Last year I started a club called “The Quotable Dumbledore Club” and it is inspired by all of my favorite Dumbledore quotes! It was irresistible to me to come up with a pattern to honor the character I have grown to love and respect. So these socks are practical and have a little bit of whimsey, just like Dumbledore himself!
