Don't Panic Socks
Ribbing and cables provide a meditative knit that mimics the rolling melody in one of my favorite Coldplay songs, “Don’t Panic.” Tip: This pattern makes tweed fingering yarn sing.
Sample shown in Ocean by the Sea, colorway: Mint Sans Chip.
Inspired by my favorite songs and our family vinyl collection, the sock patterns in the Hygge Canyon Vinyl Series I play with color and texture in lyrical ways.
