Magnificent Mittens and Socks
by Anna Zilboorg

Publisher: XRX Books
Edition: Paperback

ISBN 13: 9781933064161

Some see Anna Zilboorg's mittens as joyful riffs on color and pattern – one exuberant step removed from their ethnic source. Others appreciate their structure – a dynamic merging of innovation and minimalism. This expanded edition includes Anna's toe-up, free-sole sock design. With stranded patterning on the top of the foot and a plain sole, it is elastic, easily reinforced, and easily repaired – wherever and whenever the inevitable happens. No longer are color-patterned socks too much work for too little wear.
