These cosy toe-up socks feature a sinuous, faux cable detail - reminiscent of tracks through snow. Although they look cabled the stitches are actually completely flat and perfectly comfortable to wear in shoes.
Also they don’t draw in as conventional cables tend to do, meaning that they don’t need a higher stitch count and you still get the stretch from the knitted fabric.
