Kihnu socks knitting pattern (English)
A colourful modern twist on a traditional sock style from the island it is named after. These socks have colourwork detailing and sock teeth pattern (‘sukahambad’) with braids and sleek ribbing down the leg to the toes and heel, reminiscent of its intricate traditional inspiration.
