Trellis socks
Introducing our beautiful knitted sock pattern designed to delight any knitting enthusiast! These exquisite socks are worked from the cuff down using fine Fingering weight yarn, featuring ornate Trellis feature cables gracefully settled against a smooth Stocking stitch background. Whether you're crafting for yourself or as a gift, both sizes of socks utilize the same detailed pattern instructions; simply switch up your needle size and choose between Fingering or DK weight yarn for varying dimensions.
