Here is the Latest design of Mirva Scivola, the Pompei Socks !
I think we all have heard about Pompeii, the ancient Roman town that was buried by the violent eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. Arriving from Naples there’s a train that mostly passes on the coastal area of the Sorrento peninsula. There’s a tiny station right in front of the entrance of the archeological park. It's a weird feeling to enter the park; while the houses are mostly ruined, the streets seem to be like in the ancient times. Colons standing proud, reaching the burning mediterranean sun, without nothing to hold. One can still see the frescoes on the walls, and some of the floor mosaics are really well preserved. There’s even an amphitheater and the Grand theater, where one can still take a seat and imagine the Roman games. - Mirva Scivola
We offer this model as a kit only. If you want to buy the pattern alone, you'll find it on Mirva Scivola's Ravelry HERE.
