Alice´s Easter Bunny socks are designed as a fun celebration of Easter and the end of Winter with a hint of Alice in Wonderland included too. They are an easy to knit, colourwork sock pattern which has a simple design inspired by the patterns that can be found on Faberge eggs, along with an appearance from the Easter bunny himself.

These socks are knit from the cuff down with a 2 x 2 ribbed cuff, have a short row heel and have a stranded colourwork pattern throughout the leg and foot.
This pattern uses the magic loop circular needle method (but can be knit with dpns).
