Having perpetually cold feet, bed socks are among my favorite knitted objects. They need to be soft and nonbinding, but have enough shape to stay on. A simple rib gets a twist of tiny cables to make the knitting fun and give that perfect combination of comfort and fit. These socks are cozy and comfortable enough for sleeping, but will also feel great around the house or in your favorite clogs or Birks.
