Pattern
Checks and ribs have been paired up to create a pair of socks that can run rings around the typical store-bought variety. This pattern’s checkered panels, a simple combination of stockinette and purl stitches, could turn any guy into a fan of hand-knitted socks. Especially since our design is offered in a durable cotton blend with silk and nylon that is also nice and comfy.
