"In half a minute Mrs Cratchit entered: flushed, but smiling proudly: with the pudding, like a speckled cannon-ball, so hard and firm, blazing in half of half-a-quarten of ignited brandy, and bedight with Christmas holly stuck into the top. " A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens.
Inspired by my childhood Christmas celebrations in Britain and in particular, the beloved Christmas pudding, these socks are a fun holiday project with a small amount of easy to knit colourwork. They are ideal as a treat for yourself or a fun holiday gift for friends or family and will no doubt get you in the mood for the festive season. They are knit from the cuff down with a 2 x 2 ribbed cuff, an eye of partridge heel and have an easy to knit small section of colourwork on the leg and before the toe. This pattern uses the magic loop circular needle method (but can be knit with dpns).
There is also a fun bonus tree ornament version of this pattern gifted to you at the end of this sock pattern.
