Product Details
/ˈkwɪnzi/
“A Canadian snow shelter that is made from a large pile of loose snow which is shaped then hollowed to create a domed chamber inside. A quinzhee can be made for winter camping and survival purposes, or for fun.”
What’s more fun than handmade woolly socks to keep your toes warm on chilly days? The signature zigzag ‘Quinzhee cables’ not only look great but create a highly textured ribbed fabric which has lots of warmth and stretch. My husband absolutely loves ribbed socks because they provide such a great fit and they have definitely become his most worn pair by far!
The Quinzhee Socks are knit from the top down and in the round. The cuff features a simple 1×1 rib in a contrast colour (if you wish!) and then the slip stitch ‘Quinzhee’ cable design is worked around the whole leg. The heel turn is of a traditional heel flap and gusset construction then the cable design continues along the top of the foot until the toe is worked which is a classic wedge shape.
