These Wicked-inspired socks are designed with a diagonal rib and intentional pooling to create spirals that travel in opposite directions around the sock. The ribbing gives the sock a slouchy, scrunched look that reminded me of some of Elphaba’s outfits. The toe, afterthought heel, and cuff are knit in black, and the body is knit with green and pink yarn I dyed up inspired by Glinda and Elphaba.
