Original Pattern:  Rebus Socks

Knitter Extraordinaire: Virpi (Ravelry ID)

Mods: Virpi changed the way the gusset fit on the sock, and added an instarsia moose! Details can be found on her project page, here.

What Makes This Awesome: It is always worth customizing the fit, especially if you know that the arches of your feet might require a little extra something in your sock pattern. It also gave her a few more rows to work the adorable moose chart into the socks, because just when you think these socks couldn’t be any cooler, there is a moose! I especially love that there is a moose only on one sock, not on both. It’s in the small details that a really extraordinary knit can happen, And I think Virpi achieved that with these socks. A great high contrast pattern, a custom gusset, and a tiny moose, just for fun. What could be better!
