The awesome yarn was dyed by Show Me Yarn on the Bootheel base and as the title says the colorway was 'Knit Little Elf Knit' which just tickled my sense of humor. I added the contrast heel flap as I prefer to have my stripes stay in order, it makes my brain happy. Using of little bits of leftovers in heel flaps also makes my knitting more sustainably. Less waste is being thrown out and I'm purchasing less yarn using what I already have.
I didn't use any specific pattern, this is my standard US 1.5 needle with 64 stitches cast on using the cuff down method. I use a Modified Eye of Partridge Heel Flap that is used in all of my sock designs (free and paid.)
Are you a Christmas sock knitter? I thoroughly enjoy searching out Christmas colored yarn (Even if it's accidental Christmas) at fiber festivals. It gets me excited about my favorite holiday!
