The Lamb’s Tail Socks are ‘bed socks’, ‘house socks’, or ‘boot socks’; that is, they are thick, warm, and comfortable with a bit of whimsy in the form of wooly lamb tails (these are not bobbles) on the cuff. Knitted with worsted or DK weight yarn, they are a quick knit to warm toes fast or to give as a gift. Knitted with wool, they will be good socks to wear in boots for hiking or winter warmth. The Lamb’s Tail Socks have a purl background, so if you like to purl, these are the socks for you. Not in the mood for showing off your little lamb’s tails? Not a problem with these socks that are reversible to a textured leg.
