Not Just Boring Dad Socks

These socks are named for my dad, Grant. They’re just like him: no-nonsense, no foolishness, but comforting. Three sizes, so you can knit them for just about anyone. The pattern lends itself to any type of colorway so you can use your favorite indie or variegated yarns for when you don’t want Boring Dad socks.
