As fall nears, transform your summer memories into a cozy pair of StrandKorb Socks crafted by Kerstin Balke. Picture setting up a beach chair by the shore, and these socks will bring back the warmth of summer days and the feel of sand under your feet. Ideal for recalling summer while the weather turns cooler, each stitch will keep those sunny moments alive. Designed by Kerstin Balke, they come in sizes 36/37, 38/39, 40/41, 42/43. The knitting pattern is available on the Designer's Ravelry. You'll need US size 1.5 (2.5 mm) circular needles (not included). We recommend using stitch markers and a tapestry needle. Our Beans suggest using Knitting for Olive Merino in Navy Blue, Soft Blue, Powder, and Cream, with one ball of each color required.

To use this knitting kit, first, grab your US size 1.5 (2.5 mm) circular needles and the recommended colors of Knitting for Olive Merino yarn. Find the pattern on the Designer's Ravelry page. As you knit, use stitch markers to keep track of your work and a tapestry needle to weave in the ends. Make sure to follow the size instructions to get the perfect - fitting socks. When you're done knitting, gently wash the socks in cold water and lay them flat to dry. Avoid using harsh detergents or wringing them out to keep the socks in good condition. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
