A gorgeously cosy sock with an intuitive, relaxing stitch pattern - Florin is going to become your favourite to make and to wear! Plus, it works just as well in one single colour or many. So, whether you have a precious skein of sock yarn that you want to turn into an extra special pair of socks, or a selection of leftovers waiting in your stash for the perfect scrappy project, or a yarn advent calendar bursting with gorgeous mini skeins, this is the pattern for you.

You will be guided through step by step as you create your socks; starting from the cast on at the toe, and knitting up towards the cuff. The stitch pattern along the way is super simple (just using knit and purl stitches) and easy to memorise, so you’ll find you get into the swing of it really quickly. The pattern also includes detailed instructions on how to work a German short row heel, although you can easily swap this out for an alternative heel technique, if you would prefer.
