Kick Back, Relax Socks
The Kick Back, Relax Socks are simple ribbed socks that extend the ribbing down the heel flap, hugging the heel and creating socks with a very relaxed, very comfortable, Sunday-morning-in-bed vibe.
These socks have a ribbed heel that extends the ribbing from the leg to the heel, creating a stretchy heel that hugs the back of the foot and results in a comfortable, relaxed fit. However, this heel is bulkier than a standard heel flap and might not fit as well into shoes and boots as other handknit socks. Therefore, a less-bulky slipped stitch heel option is also included.
