We crave socks that will never see the inside of a shoe. Socks for the cocktail hour, the end of a day, a pair of seriously pleasant footcovers. And, in the case of these Après-Anything Socks, we crave a clever construction that looks for all the world like stranded knitting but is actually a slip-stitch pattern that requires only one color in a row.
