Flores Socks

These little shortie socks are knitted cuff-down, with a heel flap and adorned with a super easy to make feather and fan stitch pattern. **UPDATE: Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the neighborhood I work at is being hit hard. Our women come to the house looking for shelter and food and they've been overwhelmed by the demand, so I am re-starting this fundraiser and all sales derived from this pattern will be donated to this community kitchen to perpetuity. As of April 16, $2400 have been raised after the initial goal was achieved in December. THANK YOU!** DEC 25 - Our fundraising goal has been achieved. Thank you so much for your generosity. I am humbled and so grateful! *They are named after a neighborhood in Buenos Aires where I teach knitting at a women's community house. The initial profits from this pattern will be donated to this group to fund the elements necessary to build a community kitchen. The goal is to raise $1500 for a fridge, kneading table and electric oven, so all profits from this pattern will be donated to La Casa de la Mujer until we reach this goal. Thank you for helping us!* **SIZES** S (M, L). To fit approx. Women’s Small (Women’s Medium, Women’s Large) feet or a foot circumference of 8 (8½, 9)”; 20 (21, 22.5) cm.
