Pool Party Socks

$5.00

These socks are worked using yarn especially dyed for the assigned pooling technique. When using this technique you work a special stitch only on the accent color sections of the yarn and place the special stitches wherever you want so the socks you create will be one of a kind! They are worked from the toe up with heel flap and gusset. Length and height modifications are simple in toe up construction and are indicated throughout the pattern. The ability to try on as you go help achieve the perfect fit.
