Chunky comfort socks! Leg warmers with feet! A fast project for impatient knitters. These are knit in a chunky superwash wool blend to allow for near-instant finished project gratification and easy long-term care. They can also be worn inside out for a different swirl effect.

These cozy socks were inspired by my recent adoption of pistachio pudding as a comfort food (topped with blackberries!). In the end, these socks are a bit more ice cream- than pudding-like and could also be interpreted as an ode to mint chocolate chip. Either way, these socks are perfect for lazy days kicking around the house. Who doesn’t want spirally toes when they need a bit of extra comfort and silliness?
