Booklet Kit No.1 Diagonal pattern Tabi style winter socks

* As we have little stock for this series, some colours which are out of stock or in small quantities here are still available on the page of the corresponding kit(s) or the yarn. So don’t hesitate to contact us if the skeins of the color you are looking for are there, we can sell these skeins to you at retail.
* We can wind them. If you wish, please let us know in the “Message” field when you purchase.
* Each color is dyed in the same bath, but due to the hand and natural dyeing, each piece is different. Thank you for your understanding!
