When I first saw Skacel's 2020 color of the year, Kind of a Big Teal, I knew I wanted to use it for a water related design. My Riptide Socks are worked from the top down and feature a lacy, leg pattern, heel flap, square turn heel, lightly patterned stitchwork across the top of the foot and a spiral toe.
