The StoneCutter Collection is a quartet of patterns drawing inspiration from the combination of smooth, natural greys found in stones, and the sharp, angular lines displayed when those stones are broken into fragments.

The Navette socks are short, lightweight socks featuring a 3-color pattern around the leg and at the toe. The diamond shape pattern was inspired by handwoven fabrics found in Central American countries like Guatemala. A linen stitch heel adds texture and helps to reinforce your socks. This lively pattern would look fantastic in any number of color combinations! Knit with Quince & Co’s Finch yarn they are solid, hardworking socks that don’t take themselves too seriously.
