Loppe Socks Knitting Kit by Fiber Tales

Product Details

Lopper means fleas and is a traditional scandinavian design - simple and yet so sweet with a nostalgic touch.

The socks are worked top down with little details to make them extra special. The lateral braid after the cuff adds a nice beginning to the colorwork pattern that is actually a double loppe stitch and for the heel I chose the beautiful Eye of Partridge heel. The pattern is easy but keeps you engaged and before you know it the sock is done.

• 100 g of Heritage sock solid by Cascade yarn (75% superwash merino, 25% nylon).
