Tenney Socks
The Tenney Socks are a sister pattern to the Tenney Beanie. The inspiration for these patterns comes from Tenney park in Madison, Wisconsin. This park is filled with lagoons, bridges, lily pads, and a lock system for boats to travel from one lake to the other. The front foot design is meant to look like the locks on either side with waves of water running up the middle. These socks are knit from the cuff down and feature an afterthought heel.
