Wildwood Socks
LISTING IS FOR A KNITTING PATTERN, NOT A COMPLETED PRODUCT!
For most of my life, I’ve felt the most like myself when I’m lost in the woods. Nowadays, a few disabilities later, it’s a little harder to me to have the energy and mobility for it most days - so why not bring the woods to me? The lace motif reminds me of twisting roots and branches in the best way - the repeats are easy to memorize, easy to knit, and are so fun to watch come together as the sock grows and they start to shape, push, and twist each other into place. I hope you love them as much as I do!

The Wildwood Socks are knit cuff-down with my trusty German short row heel, although you can substitute any heel you like to achieve the fit you love most.
