DETAILS
Have you ever seen a cuter toe?? Inspired by Ooey Gooey, these socks will be the star of your sock drawer. I think it is safe to say that this is the most fun I have ever had designing socks! So much so that I designed the pattern as a set to include both Toe Up with a Fleegle Heel instructions as well as Cuff Down with a Heel Flap. No matter which construction you prefer, I hope you love them!
