Named for the way the sun shimmers off the ocean, the Shimmer Socks are a modern take on traditional fair isle designs. They feature a meditative 2 color repeat throughout with a pop of stripes on the sole. These socks are knit from the top cuff down to the toes and feature an afterthought heel. The colorwork is both written and charted.
