These beautifully textured socks combine everyday comfort with understated style. Featuring a subtle all-over textured stitch pattern across the leg and instep, they offer a classic handmade look while remaining practical for daily wear.
Worked seamlessly from the cuff down, the pattern includes a traditional heel flap and gusset construction for a comfortable fit, followed by a shaped toe. Designed for knitting in the round, this project is an enjoyable choice for knitters looking to expand their sock-making skills.
