The “CHAPPY” Socks - simple, ribbed unisex socks. Timeless and always in style.

I made these socks for my husband who grew up on Cape Cod. The variegated blues and tans reminded me of the sand and sea at one of his favorite teenage hangouts, Chapoquoit Beach, known to the locals as simply “Chappy”.
