Just Follow

“Just follow the Yellow Brick Road,” - Glinda, The Wizard of Oz

“It’s always best to start at the beginning,” as the Good Witch of the North would say. What better way than to begin at the toe? With this sock you will journey up the foot to gusset increases and a heel flap, then trek your way up to the cuff. A simple textured rib stitch creates golden pathways that lead the way up the foot of the socks, while the leg combines slipped stitches with simple knit and purl to create an avenue of yellow bricks. The adventure is highlighted by Leading Men Fiber Arts’ Spotlight base, with BFL wool providing both luster and durability for your feet. The adventure is waiting, so grab your needles-- it’s time to “Just Follow the Yellow Brick Road!”
