These pretty socks bring a modern vibe to a classic sock, designed by Stella Ackroyd. The short Fair Isle band is easy to work, with no complicated stranding to navigate and the finished result is chic and fuss-free, with just a hint of elegant patterning to draw attention to the cuff.
Offered in three sizes ranging from UK shoe size 3 to 8, the gorgeous color palette of Amble lends endless fabulous combination opportunities - perfect for a sock drawer full of seasonal goodies!
The kit comes with two 100 g hanks of yarn - one in color A and the second in color B - giving you enough yarn to make the pattern twice in the reverse color combination. Make the first pair for yourself and the second for a knitworthy friend! The tiny amounts of yarn for colors C and D can be added with any small amounts of leftover yarn you have on hand.
