This pattern was designed especially for the 2024 West Yorkshire Spinners Christmas yarn, Yuletide.
Are you looking for a Christmas knit with some extra texture interest? The Noelle socks are just the thing for you! The section of textured pattern around the top of the leg won’t slow your progress, and it’s quick and easy to knit – and best of all, it’s a pattern that will suit everyone so is perfect for all your Christmas knitting!
The heel is a heel flap and gusset type heel; the ribbing on the rest of the sock will mean that the sock will stretch even for wider feet so this sock should be perfect for any size.
