Step into the world of cables and texture with Verdure. Inspired by the lush green hiking trails in the Pacific Northwest that take you out of the city even for a brief moment. Being surrounded by towering trees as you walk along the moss covered paths, these socks are fulled with twists and turns and a bit of moss stitch. These will keep you knitting just one more round and before you know it, they are off the needles and ready for your next adventure.
