Knit with cuff-down construction with heel flaps and a check colorwork pattern around the leg. Both right and left socks are worked the same and could be worked together.
 
The sock design and name were inspired by a day spent in Ashland, Oregon walking the town, shopping and enjoying the beautiful Lithia Park grounds.
 
Much gratitude to The Fibre Co. for providing yarn support for this design.
