Knit Spin Farm

A free, simple sock pattern using three mini skeins. A combo of stipes and a small lace panel kick up your favorite vanilla sock recipe. This is a bare bones guide - not a complete pattern. 

We are getting ready to start the second round of our yarn club where YOU are the main character of a cozy, sheep-infested story and your choices determine the yarn you receive each month! For volume II, which starts December 21, you have volunteered to watch your friend's farm and take on the daily chores of caring for the animals.

Get details on this year's adventure, and see an example from last year's story!
