Socks knitting pattern |Birch Seed Socks| PDF file

The Birch Seed socks is a simple but very beautiful knitting design that uses two colors of fingering weight yarn. The dainty pattern that emerges combining knit and purl stitches allows for countless interesting combinations - from intense contrast, to soft blend between the two colors to using variegated contrasting yarn for unexpected effect.

The colorwork section is worked with one yarn at the time which makes the knitting fast and friendly to beginners however special enough to be considered for gift knitting.

I hope you have wonderful time knitting and your socks follow you on your adventures!
