Popsicle Socks take the theme from my Popsicle Sweater and pair the colourwork motif of the leg with plain, well-fitting foot. Popsicle Socks mix your favourite contrast colour pops with that perfect main colour. If you are lucky, you might have the contrast colours as left-overs from your Popsicle Sweater!

Popsicle Socks are easily worked from the cuff down and with a nicely fitting heel flap.

The design is made in collaboration with Botanical Yarn.
