Mix and Match March Girls Socks

Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy are the best of friends, and sometimes the worst of enemies. They love and learn and play and grow together in a bond that only sisters can truly understand. Under the gentle and wise guidance of their Marmee, they become the women they are meant to be. My hope for you, as you knit these socks, is that you will feel a special bond with those you hold most dear, just the way the March sisters always did for each other. This pattern includes four different cuffs and four different all-over stitch patterns, each inspired by one of the March girls, to give you the most options possible. Stitch patterns are both charted and written. Choose your cuff, choose your stitch pattern, and away you go! **Sizing** Circumference: 7 (8, 9) in unstretched Leg length: 6 inches.
