These toe-up socks were inspired by the Muscovy ducks who waddle around the Treasure Goddess Yarn studio. Duck prints walk their way down the socks. Contrasting garter ridges add a pop of color and texture. The socks have short row heels and star toes.

This pattern is written in needle neutral terms and can be worked on dpns or circular needles with your favorite small circumference circular knitting method.

The stitch pattern has both charted and written instructions.

This pattern pairs nicely with the Duck Pond Shawl.
