Edge Of Dijon
Edge of Dijon Relaunch Friday 06/08/2021, with an introductory code of 10% off on the first day using WARMFEET
(Remember all uppercase and no coupon codes can be added after purchase and non refundable so please remember to use it)
Edge of Dijon is a Top Down Sock worked in the round with a heel flap and gusset construction and an anatomical shaped toe for comfort.
Designed in two fittings, a slouchy and fitted which can be worn separately or together adding extra warmth and comfort to the cold Winter season.
The slouchy version is designed to be worn over other socks as a house slipper.
The original sock design had already been loved previously by so many knitters who’ve used the slouchy version with it’s wider fitting as a fitted sock.
For someone who may suffer with swollen feet or need wider fittings and struggle to find sock patterns this might be a perfect alternative or addition to your handmade wardrobe.
