Product Details

Contrarian Helix uses stacked cables and twisted stitches to show off the watercolor-like yarn shade while the structure of the gauge makes these socks a dream to wear. The helix-motif cables are mirrored and continuous, and the toe-up construction is a perfect excuse to use every-last-inch of yarn.

As part of the LINEAR collection these socks use mirroring and parallel lines to fit in. Being toe-up allows you to decide when you want to stop - make them calf-height if you're running short on yarn, or extend the ribbing to make the cuff turn on top of a boot.
