Vanilla Cream
‘Vanilla Cream’ are a pair of elegant fingering weight socks knitted top down. They feature a traditional heel flap and gusset and Kay’s ‘Umbrella Toe’. What separates this pattern from the rest though is that it includes six video tutorials where Kay shares her secrets to knitting the perfect sock.
Kay has been designing socks for many years and constantly striving for perfection in the construction of her socks. ‘Vanilla Cream’ is the culmination of hundreds of hours perfecting every element, so you can now knit the perfect ‘vanilla sock’.
