Lizzy & Darcy Socks
5,50 €
A bit like their namesakes, these socks are mirror opposites — one cheerful and bright, the other calm and reserved. Worked from the toe up with an afterthought heel, they feature a playful faux brioche pattern that’s both stretchy and comfy. Knit them as matching twins, or switch the colors and let the contrast do the talking.
Whether you’re team Lizzy or team Darcy, your feet are in for a love story.
