Inspired by my love for knitting socks, and how knitting has brought such goodness into my life. From chatting with other knitters during test knits, to being inspired by others work, and smooshing the most delectable colours and textures you could shake a knitting needle at.

These socks feature dip stitch hearts that are actually simple to do, and creates a wonderful texture that shows off solids, variegated, and any yarn in between. I hope these socks bring a smile to your face, and warmth to your feet!
(Note: Top down socks will have hearts pointing downwards).*
