Dip The Tip Socks (EN)

€5.50

When I was younger, I used to paint a lot. For some reason I would often gravitate towards doing it on the floor, which meant that I often accidentally stepped in some paint at some point. So back then you’d find a lot of random color blotches here and there on my socks. Well, this time it’s on purpose!

The Dip The Tip socks are worked by holding two strands of merino together to create the marled effect. The fun lies in choosing the colors to work with. I chose a muted light and beige color as my base, and then paired the lighter color together with a bubblegum pink for the rib, dark red for the heel and a bright orange for the tip.
