ABOUT THE AMICUS SOCKS
amicus (n) – from the Latin for “friend”
One thing that helps me get through day-to-day life is the support of good friends. Friends can help cheer you up when you’re feeling down, give wise advice, comfort you when you’re scared or sad, and rejoice with you when things go well. I wish you deep, sustaining friendships that nourish you in the coming years.
And a good pair of socks can be friends of a sort, too. They’ll keep your feet snug on cold nights, provide soft comfort when you need it, and help protect you from chafing and blisters. These socks, with their dancing eyelets and simple cables, are a feast of cozy details meant to comfort and warm you. With their simple stitch repeat (just ten stitches and six rows), these socks are also an easily-memorized pattern you can take anywhere with you.
