Santasaurus Socks

Bring a roar of festive fun to your knitting with the Santasaurus Socks – a playful Christmas sock pattern featuring dinosaurs in Santa hats marching through a cosy fair isle landscape of little Christmas trees. Perfect for dino lovers, Christmas fanatics, and anyone who prefers their festive knits with a quirky twist!
Worked in the round from the cuff down, these socks combine traditional fair isle style with a whimsical modern motif. The stranded colourwork creates a warm, snuggly fabric, ideal for chilly winter days, while the repeating Santasaurus pattern around the leg keeps the knitting entertaining from start to finish.
This pattern is ideal for knitters who enjoy colourwork and festive designs, and want a fun project to show off in December (or all year round – no judgement here!).
