Description

Overview of the socks:

The Brookie Socks are knitted from the cuff down to the toe using fingering-weight yarn. They feature beautiful cable details that flow seamlessly from the cuff all the way to the toes. The back of the leg is worked in a firm twisted rib that continues throughout the sock. The socks include a reinforced heel, and the toe is finished with grafting for a neat look.
