Kultaniitty Socks
Golden leaves all around us, the crisp mornings are starting to make my toes feel it: winter will soon be here. I love to feel the morning air on my face, knowing that it will be quite a while before we see green trees again.
Kultaniitty Socks are worked from toe up, with a garter stitch short row heel and a lovely, easy-to-memorize lace pattern floating from foot to leg.
