Buy 2, Get 1 Free: To celebrate Socktober – the whole month of October dedicated to sock knitting – I’m having a little sale on my sock patterns. For one week, from October 12 to 18, when you buy any 2 of my sock patterns, you get 1 for free. All you have to do is add 3 sock patterns to your cart and the price will adjust!

See all sock patterns here!

Ignite the spark – with a skein of sock yarn and a set of needles. Combining lace and a bit of cables and a smooth stockinette sole, these socks are a joy to knit. They are inspired by the fire element.

The Spark socks are a sibling pattern to the Fire shawl.
And the first of the Four Element sock patterns.

You can watch a video of the Spark socks here:
