This gorgeous, cabled pair of socks looks complex but is actually deceptively easy. Elegant textures are paired with a simple cable to embody feelings of comfort and mindfulness.

These geographical ridges can run for hundreds or even thousands of kilometres in length. Here, the name Esker refers to the single row of purl bumps on the right side of the shawl.
