    About

    A friend of mine suffers with swollen feet a lot of the time so she has commissioned me to make her a variety of socks in different patterns (in the biggest size) in a varying degree of quality wool, so she can find out what is the best combo for her feet. This pair is a ribbed sock to allow for a reasonable amount of stretch in a 25% wool yarn. It is also the first time i will have worked on socks in the round. I normally work them flat and crochet them together.
