October Twist // a pair of toe-up socks
The weather in October is always surprising. One day, it’s midsummer warm and the next a twist of cold air shakes the browning leaves to the ground. These gorgeous socks, worked toe-up and featuring a mirrored twisted stitch motif, help you “step” cozily into the season.
