These socks were inspired by my Dutch heritage, and the colorful rows of tulip fields found in the early
spring. Whether you are lucky enough to see the tulips in The Netherlands, a local botanical garden, or
though pictures on your screen, these socks are sure to excite you about the new growth in spring time.
These cuff down socks features 3 sizes, 4 rows of colorful Fair Isle tulips, heel flap and gusset, and endless yearning for spring blossoms.
