pinstripe1

The fabric created by working one strand of Linen/Rayon and one strand of Alpaca together is a tweedy, soft, and firm fabric. The pinstripes, created by working the linen strand only, are subtle, sophisticated, and sexy. Simple lines, turned cuff, and short row heel make this an easy sock to knit, but a great addition to your wardrobe.
