Georgia Socks is a sweet pattern with lots of fun packed into it. Lots of stripes, easy lace and a cut in heel keep things exciting, and they are so quick to knit up that I know you can’t stop at just one pair!
These are named for my daughter, who loves beautiful yarn, and wearing hand knit socks, but only if they’re shorties. This pattern is for her, and for all of us that just love a quick knit and cute short socks. Happy knitting, Friends. ♡
