Winter Garden Socks
About the Design:
These Bohus-inspired socks are worked in 2 Cascade Yarns – Cascade 220 and Cloud 9, a luscious angora/wool blend.
Challenging (3-color) leg pattern rewards you with easy Stockinette feet. Slip stitch toes coordinate with slip stitch V-heel flaps and turns, creating a snug fit around the toes.
