Ribbons and Bows is a fun and cosy colour work sock design.
This design is knitted cuff down with a 1x1 rib cuff, an eye of
partridge heel flap and finishes with a short row wedge toe.
Make the design festive and knit them using Christmas red, green, off white, greys and gold or knit them for any time of the year and use pastel tones, bright or neon shades. The design works best with high contrasting colours.
