Moto is a modern take on the DK weight slipper sock. Inspired by detailing on motorcycle jackets, Moto has folded cuff with faux welting details on the outside and 1x1 rib on the inside. There is an option to add faux welted patterning on the sole for a cushioned slipper feel. These cozy socks will keep your feet warm and stylish all winter long, and they knit up quick, so they’re perfect for holiday gift knitting!

Moto is knit from the top down with a provisional cast on and folded cuff. This sock has an afterthought heel with short row shaping above the heel for a better fit, and two heel style options.
