These fun socks are just the right level of spooky for me. Ghosts holding hands and sleek black cats scream Halloween fun while still being delightfully adorable. The Minuit Socks - named after my beloved black cat Minuit (Midnight in french) - are the perfect thing to have on your needles to get you in the mood for spooky season!

These socks are knit from the top down and feature a short row heel.
