Don’t Need Your Love Socks
I love a combination of ribbing with traveling cables, and this motif uses both to dramatic effect. The use of ribbing creates an easy fitting sock that stretches to fit multiple sizes.
Katherine Parr sings about her conflicted marriage to Henry VIII (who she ultimately outlives) and her love Thomas. When I listen to her song, I imagine the strength she had to protect a part of her heart, creating a safe space for her own happiness, which I hope this cable echoes.
