Time for another Disney inspired sock pattern! These socks were inspired by the gothic patterns on Cinderella's Castle in Walt Disney World. This is not my original pattern, but when I saw it, I was immediately reminded of the back of the castle - the view from the Carousel. I also knew I wanted to make them in this royal purple color. I had been saving this lovely yarn for a special pattern. This was definitely the right one!
These socks were easy to knit and a welcome change after those intricate Dumbo socks last month! I was able to complete these in about two weeks. (A much more reasonable time frame for me!) I love the way they turned out. I think even Cinderella would be pleased! And since our weather is still a bit iffy (even snowy!), I can wear them a bit longer before they need to be retired to the sock drawer for the summer!
If you want all the particulars, including the pattern and the wonderfully soft alpaca yarn I used, you can find all the details on my Ravelry page. Until next time, stay cozy, and may all your days be filled with fairy dust!
