Our September 2023 knitwear pattern was created exclusively for Two Sheeps LLC by Elise Ljiko! (@frosiaknits on Instagram)
Elise: "This pattern was inspired by the stunning landscapes of California vineyards. Visiting California reminds me of days spent in the Tuscan countryside of Italy. From Montalcino to Chianti and beyond, tasting wine or spending a day at a vineyard is an activity I highly recommend! The button stitches in this pattern create cascading grape bunches on the vine down the middle of the sock as a nod to the beautiful vineyard landscapes. These socks are knit cuff down using a heel flap and gusset heel including a slipped-stitch pattern for thickness and durability. I hope you enjoy knitting and wearing these socks as much as I've enjoyed designing them!"
Elise designed these socks using 1 skein of superwash fingering-weight yarn that was dyed exclusively for Two Sheeps by Marissa Bonnett of Fantasy Fibers Yarn Co.
