Knit a pair of Fair Isle socks with this Fair Isle sock pattern inspired by traditional motifs from Traditional Fair Isle Knitting by Sheila McGregor. Snowfall in Paradise are cuff down socks with an afterthought heel, featuring an all-over Fair Isle snowflake pattern. The name is inspired by my time spent knitting these socks by the pool on vacation in Mexico.
