  • Tassel Dazzle – Socks

    The Tassel Dazzle Socks are a great way to add a bit of twinkle, sparkle, delight to your day (and feet)! The effect of the stitch pattern reminds us of a cloud of confetti dancing in the air, eventually floating into an airy V-shape on the top of the socks. The tiny tassels around the cuff resemble small Funfetti Shots, echoed in the contrasting toes.

    The socks are knit from the cuff down, with a short, reverse stockinette cuff leading into the intuitive knit, purl, slip leg pattern. A small eyelet pattern gently leads into the stockinette foot which is complemented by a modified short-row heel with gusset decreases. The confetti comes into play again with a little bit of fun colorwork before the contrasting toe. Last, but certainly not least, you add tiny tassels out of the contrasting yarn at the cuff!
