Whispers in the Walls
Are a gorgeous pair of socks featuring a cable and lace design. They were inspired by the second book in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling.
The cable’s on the socks are achieved without the use of a cable needle and they represent the snake which appears at the end of the book. The lace motif creates a beautiful lightning streak straight down the socks and the detailing on the back represents the sword which is used by our hero to defeat the snake.
