Winter Ponche Socks
"Mexican Ponche is a warm and comforting fruit punch made with apples, pears, oranges and guavas and spiced with cinnamon, cloves, tamarind and hibiscus typically served at Christmas time."
I was inspired by this drink and the comfort it brings when I started designing the Winter socks for my collaboration with Yarn Experiments.
I wanted to fit comfort, coziness and texture to my design while keeping it easy going.
