Sloe Gin
Inspired by my dearheart’s need for strong-wearing yet non-boring hand-knits, these socks imbue a silent masculinity.
The twin narrow cables running down the front of the leg and foot are balanced by a modified Celtic knot and key on the back of the leg, to add a little interest into an otherwise straightforward pattern. It also features, my favourite, a Welsh heel and a crown cuff.
This pattern is part of a slowly-being-released 4-pattern collection of socks just for men! It is the masculine counterpart to Pink Gin, which will be available soon.
