Evolution Socks....................pattern now available

A sock pattern specifically for Evolution yarn. This ribbed pattern helps these socks hold their shape and stay on/up. Evolution is a beautiful yarn but not as stretchy as other wool sock yarns so needs a rib to compensate. I really love this yarn, and it is very hard to believe touching it that it is wool because of the special process applied to it.

I finally got around to writing this pattern up properly and putting it on PDF. Sussexyorkie knitted 2 pairs and they can be seen here and here. She is a much neater knitter than I am and has used Figgy Pudding and Black Cherries colourways. I am also knitting a pair in Flamingo Sunrise. My aunt has ordered another pair too. If there is any problem with the pattern please let me know and I will try to fix it :) Click on the socks to download, it's free.
