Suska's Socks
I wanted the sweetest socks in all the world - soft, ethereal and pink! These little anklets are worked from the toe up in bouncy sock yarn held together with fluffy silk mohair. Added bonus? The silk mohair naturally strengthens the sock without the need for nylon! The picot cuff is the perfect pretty finish! They are named for the loveliest, kindest person who needed to warm her feet and so received my first pair I made - Suska.
*In purchasing this product you will receive a .pdf pattern for the pictured item so that you can knit them up yourself, not the actual finished item.
