“I was beyond excited when I was asked to participate in this fun Hook to Hook challenge. Socks are a great project when temperatures are rising but you still want to crochet something wearable. I designed these socks to be airy and breathable in warmer months. They’re quick to make, so they can be completed during a road trip or weekend at the beach, and they’re reminiscent of sweet little daisies blooming throughout the summer.” Follow Nicki on Instagram at @nickibyrnescrochet

“Crochet is so versatile, and I enjoy exploring different techniques in order to create a variety of patterns – and I was excited to see what I could do with socks for this Hook to Hook challenge! The colours remined me of strawberries at summer picnics and inspired me to create a delicate, pretty pair of ankle socks, suitable for any garden party. I chose a filet technique for a floral lace design. I hope everyone enjoys making them!” Find Alice on Instagram at @the_burrow_uk
