“The word Mokum, or ‘place’, is Amsterdam’s version of New York’s Big Apple — a nickname indistinguishable from the city it romanticizes.” – Matt Lebovic.
Named after the city’s nickname, “Mokum”, a Yiddish word that means “place” or “safe haven”, these socks are inspired by everyday life in Amsterdam. The rhythmic geometric motifs are pulled from patterns found around the city from the canals to the lively walls of Amsterdam Centraal. You don’t even need to leave your bike to catch a glimpse of the striking lines marking the speed bumps along your way.

Mokum Collection includes two patterns with the same motif:

• Mokum Cowl (part of Urth Yarns “Knitters of the World” project)

• Mokum Socks
