Another Road Trip

These cozy socks feature a beautifully simple slipped-stitch pattern that elegantly runs down the heel flap, making them a perfect choice for knitters of all skill levels. Not only are they practical knitting for road trips, but they also require minimal attention, as there is really only one row you need to focus on. This allows for enjoyable, mindless knitting while still achieving stunning results. I particularly recommend using a variegated yarn, as the colors can shine through beautifully without the pattern becoming lost in the mix.

Finished Size: S (M, L) [7” (8”, 9” around), unstretched]. These socks are designed to fit snugly and comfortably, perfect for everyday wear or special occasions.

Yarn: Dragonfly Fibers Dragon Sock, 100% Superwash Merino, with an impressive 390 yards per 100g skein (Sample knit in the stunning shade Denali). This high-quality yarn not only provides warmth but also ensures that your socks maintain their softness and durability over time.
