Heartnut Socks
The Gellatly Nut Farm, located on the west side of Okanagan Lake, is one of the oldest working nut farms in Canada. The farm is home to over 800 nut trees and shrubs, including the beloved heartnut, named for its production of a nut that looks, both inside and out, like a heart.
Heartnut socks are knit toe up, with a heartnut inspired cable pattern across the top, and an afterthought heel.
