From Sarah Dallas’ Pattern Description
Ideal for walking aournd the house on cool mornings or evenings, these crimson and fuchsia pink striped socks are knitted in cozy merino wool. With the toes and heels picked out in red, and with a contrasting colored tip on the ribbing, they look as good as they feel.
