Alpine Meadow Bed Socks- Instant Download PDF
Before moving to the mountains of North Carolina full-time in 2020, For 4 months a year, I lived high up in the Blue Ridge Mountains in Boone. After decades of living in Florida where the summer means brown grass and no flowers, it was a revelation to see the glory of an Alpine summer right outside my door. I was entranced by the flowers and captivated by the beautiful Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterflies that landed on my deck and danced among the trees and bushes. Magic.
These cozy bed socks, with a butterfly stitch and floral embroidery, are a perfect bit of summer for your feet on chilly winter mornings. Just in case you need a reminder!
These socks are also available in the E-book, American Sock Knitting.
