Borealis Socks
Introducing the Borealis Socks, the enchanting final installment of our Aurora collection. These stunning socks feature three distinct patterns, each designed to raise both funds and awareness for three charities that hold a special place in my heart. Inspired by the mesmerizing northern lights, the Borealis socks showcase a sweeping cable design that elegantly travels up the front of the sock, reminiscent of the awe-inspiring lights dancing across the night sky.
Perfect for the entire family, these versatile socks are crafted in Doulton Border Leicester 4ply yarn, ensuring both comfort and durability. The design is worked from the cuff down using a traditional heel flap and gusset construction, making them an enjoyable and rewarding knit for crafters of all skill levels. The beautiful cable motif is featured prominently on the adult sizes, while a simplified version of the cable design adorns the smaller sizes for children and toddlers. With the striking cable running up the front of the sock, the rest of the sock is knit in smooth stocking stitch for a contrasting texture that enhances the overall aesthetic.
The sample pair is knit in the captivating ‘Saltholme’ colorway, which perfectly captures the vibrant essence of the auroras. Whether you’re knitting for yourself or as a heartfelt gift for a loved one, the Borealis Socks are not just a beautiful addition to your wardrobe but also a meaningful way to support charitable causes.
