My very first pair of Alpaca socks, they feel so soft, comfy and cozy!
They are also my very first pair of ribbed socks. I do not like ribbed socks, I do not like ribbed socks, I do not like ribbed socks! I can not pinpoint the dislike, I think it has to do with the size, width and shape of my foot, ankle and leg. The hung-hem do my feet so much more justice! I love my all my hung-hem socks, just saying, for those of you who are RIBBED SOCKS fanatics! Guess I won't be a member of that group :-) I am looking forward to testing the Alpaca socks though on a real cold day, perhaps in my boots out shoveling snow as I do like to do that when the time comes.
