Super Moon Socks
One of three bonus patterns exclusively in my Full Moon Socks ebook.
Less rare than a Blue Moon, we get to enjoy Super Moons 3 to 4 times a year. These moons appear larger and brighter because they are at their closest to Earth and appear largest as they rise just above the horizon. I love this sock design so much! I dreamt of it all year as I worked on the other sock patterns, looking forward to using up the leftover bits of yarn. There are endless color combos and you can choose your stripe widths too. I will be making more of these to use up those Exmoor scraps!
