Socks for Dad
Socks for Dad came about when I gifted my Dad his first pair of handknit socks and he loved them! I thought how fun would it be to create a sock pattern for a pair for him.
This pattern is perfect if you are wanting something just beyond vanilla. You will have this memorized in no time and fly right through it! It gives just a bit of texture down the front of the sock, while having the back plain stockinette.
Pattern is written for top down, in the round. Has instructions for a slip stitch heel flap.
