Olive Trunkless Elephants
These socks were designed with the simple yet sophisticated pinstripe in mind.
The modified purl bumps run along the top of the foot and wrap around the leg. These socks are written for three sizes but are easily modified to accommodate larger or smaller stitch counts as well.
Great for everyday or to wear under a pair of slacks, these are sure to become your go-to socks of choice.
