For a foot circumference of 9 to 9.25 inches (yes, my fellow wide-footed people, this is for you!)

Inspired by the bird that is born and dies in flame, these socks feature a feathery pattern going up the foot and the front and back of the leg. The leg has a cable motif on both sides signifying the tail of the phoenix. The red color is for the phoenix flame. This sock also features a marvelous cast-off, the invisible cast off. It’s just about as stretchy as Jeny’s or EZ sewn, but it is invisible when worked with a 1x1 rib. Kind of like the tubular cast-off, without the tube. Enjoy!
