Welly's Socks
What evokes the essence of summer for you? Is it the delightful shift from pants to shorts, the excitement of uncovering the grill, or perhaps the irresistible craving for ice cream? For me, nothing screams summer quite like indulging in various flavors of ice cream on a hot day. That feeling of joy inspired the creation of Welly's Socks, a charming knitted interpretation of an ice cream cone!
The Welly's Socks pattern features a top-down design adorned with beautiful cables, a striking contrast heel, and employs the unique technique of helical knitting. This lovely pattern is perfect for knitters of all skill levels, as the cable instructions are fully written out for all three sizes. This thoughtful detail truly simplifies the knitting process, allowing you to focus on enjoying your craft while creating something beautiful.

- NEEDLES: US 1.5 (2.5 mm) needles.
- NOTIONS: Tapestry needle, stitch markers, and a cable needle.
