Snow Shoe socks
Sock season has arrived and, regardless of your age, you’ll want socks in your boots, in your shoes, and definitely indoors on all the floors. This pattern includes sizing for both adults and children, and pairs cheerful snowflakes and bands of stripes into a delightfully versatile sock for the entire family! (So perfect for gift giving, too!)
The adult version of these socks, with a snowflake cuff, look terrific peaking over the tops of your boots or hiding inside your favorite pair of pants, reminding us all that it’s sock weather!
The snowflakes are charted, with built-in ease for sliding over the instep. The pattern contains step-by-step instructions to help new sock knitters, and we’ve also included this tutorial for help with jogless stripes. But, if stranded colorwork is not your thing, simply stripe it all the way, as we’ve done for the little kiddos’s sizes!
