Inspired by the peaceful winter walks in the woods I love to take, alone or in good company, these socks have little flurries at the cuff and a simple meditative repeat on the leg and foot. A quick cozy project in squishy DK yarn, to warm your feet as you stroll outdoors all winter long.

This is a top/cuff down sock.

The pattern is written for sizes S, M, L and XL (48, 52, 56, 60 stitches circumference) Suggested measurements of the widest part of the foot: 8, 8.5, 9, 9.75 inches.
