The socks are inspired by the Fair Isle bands at the top of jumpers, I wanted to create cheerful yet cosy socks. They will be perfect to wear around the house, in your wellies or walking shoes.

The socks are constructed using the toe-up technique.
The toe and foot are worked using continues spiral, the heel in rows, the leg and cuff in joined rounds.
