Crocus Shorties is the Ancient Arts Summer Shorties Sock Club pattern for June!

“I always think nothing says spring like flowers. My mom planted spring flower bulbs everywhere, and the first flowers to open each year were the crocuses. The sight of those always said spring is
really here!! This lace pattern reminds me of those welcome harbingers of the summer to come.”
