These socks are simple, handsome, and very comfortable. With a turned cuff that snuggles up to your ankle, but stays oh-so-stretchy, plus ribbed detailing down the sides, these socks easily fit a wide range of sizes and are attractive on any gender.

Make them for yourself, a loved one, or a good friend. Everyone deserves a beautiful pair of handknit socks!
