Chilly mornings are a whole lot sweeter with a big mug of tea and a pair of super-cosy socks to pad about in – simple pleasures.
These oversized slouchy beauties, with their impressive cable texture, are just what you need to keep warm this winter. Knitted with a luxurious mohair yarn that looks like candy floss, and feels just as soft, prepare for your feet to be seriously spoilt. And for your Instagram feed to be filled with gratuitous sock shots.
