The “Dobongsan Socks” are toe-opening socks that wrap around the front of the foot, named after their mountain-like shape. The name comes from Dobongsan, a mountain in Seoul, South Korea. They can be worn together with flip-flops or sandals.

Due to the nature of knitted socks, even if they feel slightly tight at first, they will stretch with wear, so please keep this in mind while knitting.
