Crocheted socks get a bad rap about being heavy or not fitting great. Cream of Wheat socks demonstrate that they can be airy and have a more tailored fit in the heel. By working a wedge on the bottom of the foot instead of a traditional cup for the heel, you can get a sock that will fit your foot length much better. The design I have used on the top of the foot and on the leg reminds me of wheat blowing in the breeze and gaps are created to give them an airy feel. This stitch also gives more stretch to allow more flexibility in size with a cuff that hugs your leg.
