A simple pair of socks worked in the round from the top down in 4ply/fingering sock yarn. The stitch pattern is an extension of the standard slipped stitch heel to cover the entire sock. Perfect to make warm toes. The name Jupon is derived from the slipped stitches used in the sock. Jupon is a type of slip (petticoat).
