Inspired by Japanese house socks, these whimsical two-color socks feature the friendly faces of koi (known as brocaded carp, or nishikigoi in Japanese) on the toe, and a fish-scale motif on the leg. Adapted from traditional Turkish sock techniques, these socks are knit from the toe up. With increases across the hinge of the foot and decreases through the ankle, this pattern yields cozy socks with the best possible fit and unique style. What makes house socks special? Across much of Northern Asia, you don’t wear shoes inside the house, ever. Most homes don’t have central heating, and in winter, your feet get really cold – and thus house socks were invented! With their stranded pattern, these socks are extra thick to keep your feet toasty warm. They’re so thick and cushy they’re best enjoyed on their own without shoes!
