Fairy Ring Sock Pattern

This GORGEOUS pattern is written by Katie Green, I had to get it in the shop because it's so lovely. I love the illustrations on Katie's work as much as I love the actual patterns.

The booklet is 12 pages, fully illustrated in black and white, with a full colour cover and charts, printed in the UK on 100% recycled paper. It also comes with access to files for download including an alternative chart and a large text version.

The Fairy Ring Socks are knitted top-down in the round with sizes for kids and adults... so you can match with your littles!

The main yarn used for this design is a non-superwash wool reinforced with nylon for durability. If you wish to substitute yarn, I recommend choosing something with similar reinforcing fibre for the longevity of your socks. I have knitted a sample and used a mixture of Opal Uni 4ply and Merino Blend 4ply in various colours.
