gumboot socks

These socks are meant to survive being worn with gumboots - the most destructive item of footwear ever invented. Most socks take one look and then disintegrate. These may do the same but we live in hope. The colours are from brazilwood and Eucalyptus nicholi. The wool is mostly romney and the heels can be detached for reknitting.
