Olympus Cove Socks
The Olympus Cove area is almost Alpine in nature: houses and shops dot up the farthest Eastern side of the valley with Mount Olympus towering overhead. Broken rib ridges extend into the heel flap and a slight cable twists along the gusset catch the eye, inspired by the steep hills in this unique neighborhood.
Sample shown in Rhapsody Fiber BFL Tweed. Colorway: Estuary.
Inspired by the neighborhoods peppering the Wasatch front, Salt Lake’s hilly East side, the sock yarn-based patterns in the Benches Collection are lightweight and ready for action during the mercurial season transitions.
