Acantha Socks
Pay What You Can: In an effort to find a balance between more financial accessibility and sustainable pricing, I now offer a “PWYC” model. This allows for financial flexibility while still valuing and respecting the work and energy I and others provide in the making of this pattern. The price shown on Ravelry is the “true” value of the pattern that best reflects the work put into creating this design.
To purchase the pattern at a price point that is more accessible to you, use the coupon code at checkout listed next to the price point. The prices indicate the price you will pay, not the discount amount. No coupon code is needed for the highest price point.
NO CODE - $6.00
Sock20 - $4.80
Sock50 - $3.00
Sock70 - $1.80
Sock100 - Free
Please note for those located in Europe that VAT is applied at checkout.**
The Acantha Socks bloom with lace and mini cables that twist together like tiny ferns, unfurling across a purl background. The motif carries the grace of a fleur-de-lys; it is intricate, regal, yet simple in its rhythm. Knit top-down, these socks offer a gentle way to practice cabling without a needle while creating something that feels timeless.
