These socks are dedicated to my three favorite tarot cards that
I am always happy to pick.Starting with The Sun card, which represents success and good fortune in your life. Next is The Star card. This is another positive card, which represents hope and happiness. The star is believed to be a symbol of renewal and opportunities coming your way. Finally, on the foot of the sock, there is The Wheel of Fortune motif. This card stands for luck and positive change. Whether you believe in tarot cards or not, who can fail to like the optimistic meanings behind these symbols and what they represent? They may even bring you or your loved ones some good fortune while also creating a fabulous pair of mystical socks to wear.
These socks are knit from the top down. Knit with only two colors per round, this sock features three different colorwork
motifs that represent The Sun, The Star and The Wheel of Fortune tarot cards. The socks start with a ribbed cuff and feature a short row heel. Stitches are decreased for the toe and
then grafted together
