Hieta socks feature rolling white sand. They are so much easier to make than how they look, so you can literally even work them on the beach. The Hieta socks are mostly worked in 2x2 ribbing with cables on the topside. The trick is the pattern rotation from the toe to cuff - like grains of sand flying in the wind. The socks are made toe up with a German short row heel.
