Symbolism
Fight to Win symbolizes the ability to power up strength to face challenges head on to achieve the desired outcome.

Highlights
Fight to Win socks are knit in the round from cuff down using two high contrast colors. The socks can be made as Mid-Calf (Tall) or Short, and can easily be elongated or shortened on the foot bed to the desired length. The socks are designed with negative ease of ½” / 1.5 cm, thus select a size based upon foot circumference less desired ease.

Experience + Skills
Skills leveraged include long-tail cast on, knit and purling in the round, decrease stitches, pick up stitches and stranded colorwork.
