Virden is a mirrored pair of cable socks, each beginning at the outside of the leg and using increases and decreases, meets at the inside of the foot.
Using CraftyJak’s Boutique Tough & Tender, this pair is wonderfully cushy and cozy, while also being strong enough to wear all winter (even in our notoriously harsh prairie weather).
