Decode this sock!

This yarn uses a colour code to represent the letters of the alphabet and spells out LOVE IS LOVE. See the rest of the Hello Alphabet collection here.

There is extra grey at one end of the skein that can be used for cuffs, heels, toes, or any other accents. The colour map shows how the yarn is dyed, with six repeats of the word LOVE.

Our sample sock has a gauge of 7.5 stitches per inch, and 60 stitches around to fit a women's size 9. This sock has a short row heel using grey yarn from the end of the skein.

This skein would also be suitable for a Musselburgh Hat. The pattern is written for a range of gauges and yarn weights; we recommend using a needle in the range of a US 3 - 6 (3.25 mm - 4 mm).

$1 from the sale of each skein of this colourway will be donated to the Victoria Pride Society.
