White Christmas Socks
Snow gently drifts down onto a sleepy village as children await Santa Claus. They will wake in the morning to presents under the tree, freshly fallen snow, and, if they are very lucky, a new pair of handknit socks. Snow-inspired colorwork adorns the leg of the White Christmas Socks. The short leg length makes for a quick knit, and sizes for the whole family make this the perfect pattern for your gift-knitting needs. The White Christmas Socks are knit from the cuff down with a heel flap and gusset.
