Mermaid Avenue Socks
Skill Level: Adventurous Beginner
Style: Cuff-down; Heel flap & gusset
The Mermaid Avenue Socks incorporate a delightful stitch pattern that mimics the scales on a mermaid tail. Easy to memorize and interesting to knit, these socks can be worked up in a variety of yarns, from solids to tonals, speckles, and everything
in between!
This pattern includes tutorials for the stitches used, as well as YouTube videos that show how the stitches are made. At the end of the pattern, there is also a recipe page for knitting a Mermaid Fade.
According to Mermaid lore, these sirens of the sea sometimes make their way ashore and live on land for awhile. I like to think if there are mermaids among us, they would happily wear these socks to warm their feet!
Note: This listing is for the digital PDF knitting pattern only, not the physical socks.
