Marmalade District Socks
With the Marmalade District Socks, I hoped to capture the narrow curving streets and hidden gems that await any visitor to one of Salt Lake’s oldest neighborhoods.
Inspired by Salt Lake City, the busy hub of the Beehive state, the Salt Lake Collection features cozy knits, perfect for a chilly day in the city and beyond.
Sample shown in Little Lionhead Knits, colorways: Vintage Plaid Blanket - Goldenrod and Dark Brown, with a Grandpa’s Suitcase toe.
