Pay What You Can: In an effort to find a balance between more financial accessibility and sustainable pricing, I now offer a “PWYC” model. This allows for financial flexibility while still valuing and respecting the work and energy I and others provide in the making of this pattern. The price shown on Ravelry is the “true” value of the pattern that best reflects the work put into creating this design.

The Helia Socks are inspired by sunny days, effortless texture, and easy knitting. Whether you prefer top-down or toe-up, this pattern works both ways, giving you the flexibility to knit your socks just how you like. The stitch repeat is super simple, and the best part? Every other row is just plain knit, making this a low-stress, high-reward project. The textured design covers the front of the sock, giving your feet a cozy hug while showing off your yarn’s personality.
