The Romance Reader Socks are the perfect soft, feminine design to wear as you cozy up with your favorite swoony book. A toe up, vanilla sock (with a little spice), this pattern comes in seven sizes from baby to adult extra large so that any sized sweetheart can wear this cute design. The bow design is made with duplicate stitch, so even those without colorwork experience can feel confident.

SIZE
Sizing is based on foot circumference at the ball (the widest part) of your foot

  • Baby (4”)
  • Toddler (5”)
  • Child (6”)
  • Adult small (7”)
  • Adult medium (8”)
  • Adult large (9”)
  • Adult extra large (10”)

You want your sock to have a snug fit. Choose a size that is approximately 1-1.5” smaller than your actual foot. If between sizes, choose the smaller size.
