Quiet Afternoon

When the world’s needs are many and I am feeling depleted, an afternoon of quiet reflection helps make all well again. Those moments of refuge – often accompanied with knitting, a cup of tea, and music – do wonders for the soul.

In appreciation and thankfulness for those quiet afternoons, these socks receive their name. They are, themselves, much like those afternoons: gentle and beautiful. Based on an eight-stitch repeat with twisted stitches worked every other round, I recommend knitting this pattern using a solid or tonal yarn to show the stitches as they sway from round to round.

This pattern has been tech edited and test knit.
