Just one step beyond plain vanilla, the Barrett Socks are essential, authentic and everyday wearable for men, women and teens. With a central panel of textured stitches running from top to toe, Barrett keeps things interesting while showcasing a hand-dyed, variegated or marled yarn. Sock solids also get a lift from this sassy combination of knits and purls. These well-fitting socks are worked from the top down beginning with the Twisted German cast on and feature a short row heel.
