“People say I’m the best boss. They go, ‘God, we’ve never worked in a place like this. You’re hilarious, and you get the best out of us.’ (lifts up ‘World’s Best Boss’ coffee mug) Um, I think that pretty much sums it up. I found it at Spencer Gifts.”
– Michael Scott, The Office

Michael Scott, Regional Manager of Dunder Mifflin, is an iconic character that sometimes tries too hard (though rarely at his actual job). These socks might look complicated, but a few simple stitches will have them flying off your needles without trying hard at all. Left and right twists create cozy texture on the leg without the need for a cable needle, while the ribbed heel adds durability and comfort to the footwear. The texture changes on the instep of the sock will keep a comfortable fit when worn with work shoes. Once finished, you’ll walk away satisfied with a smile on your face. (That’s what she said…)
