Riemu is joyous sock design. The pattern very handily includes instructions for seven different stitch counts so you can make a pair for everyone in the family. The socks are worked cuff-down. They feature a garter stitch short row heel, and the legs are adorned with three rows of celebratory ruffles. The pattern is written for magic loop technique on a long circular needle, but you can work the socks with dpns if you wish.
