This top-down, textured rib sock in five sizes XS(S, M, L, XL) is super simple to knit but oh-so-useful for men, women, and kids on the go. Worked in a warm, wooly yarn, it is a hiking/rowing/snowshoeing essential to stripe as you like or not! Knit in a single shade, the leg is reversible and can be cuffed with style. Its stretchy, airy rib allows for excellent wicking and quick drying in hot or wet conditions. It is a fun and very portable project for beginners and experienced knitters alike—plus, a gift that says you think the most of a special someone.
