apiary (’āpē, erē) noun. A place where bees are kept.

A simple, pretty sock inspired by bees, honey, and all things apiarian. Knit from the top down with a twisted rib cuff, eye of partridge heel, and an easily memorized honeycomb stitch, these are perfect for showing off a beautiful sock yarn (or two).
