Concorde Pear Socks Fingering

Six days shalt thou paddle and pack, but on the seventh thou shalt wash thy socks. ~ Aldo Leopold, considered to be the father of wildlife ecology

The fact that in the past we have mostly only seen tweeds in darker or more neutral colors makes the new brights seem all the more robust.

I love bright colors and the new tweed sock yarns available in non-traditional colorways are just stunning.

PATTERN NOTES Written for both DK and Fingering weight yarns, this collection includes ‘top-down’ socks, cast on at the cuff, then worked in the round on double pointed or circular needles to the heel. The Dutch heel flap is worked back and forth in rows, and then the heel is turned. Stitches are picked up along the heel flap, and the work is joined in the round and the gusset stitches decreased. Each sock in this collection is embellished with an optional pear-shaped button, bead, or charm.
