Pine Trails is a classic sock that is perfect for fall hikes or keeping cozy by the fire as mornings get cold. Inspired by the dream of a family cabin in the woods, these socks are a sturdy yet whimsical design for the whole family to enjoy.

These socks are knit cuff down, beginning with a Half-Twisted Rib cuff and a colorwork tree motif. The leg is knit in a traditional flea pattern, to a contrasting heel flap and gusset. The flea pattern continues down the top of the foot, with a contrasting colorwork pattern along the bottom of the foot, leading to a rounded toe.

Samples are 8” size

Colorwork pattern is charted only.
