These Beachgrass Socks are knitted in the way that I believe it’s the easiest, best fitting and most durable way to knit as sock… which is also the most classic one: cuff-down and with a heel flap. These beautifully classic socks are adorned with gorgeous simple textures and lace.

The directions are very clear, and if you have knitted from my patterns before, then it’s the same old Joji, just talking you through the process of knitting a sock. You can absolutely make these as your first pair if you’ve never tried making socks before!

During the last 3-4 years, knitting socks has been my escape when I am very stressed. Socks bring me peace of mind. I always know they will turn out alright. Whether they are for me or for someone else with a smaller or a larger foot, socks are always loved! That’s why I always keep a pair (or two!) on the needles.

I hope you like these Beachgrass Socks!
