The Perfect Pair

The Agnelli Socks from Comme Si make me feel polished, stylish and a little smarter. They have the perfect rib and a distinctive (and practical!) tab for pulling them on. I already have them in red, white and gray, but perhaps someone will stuff the cactus-colored pair in my stocking this Christmas.

Ribbing is a textured vertical stripe pattern in knitting that's often used for sock cuffs. It's created by alternating knit and purl stitches in the same row, then knitting the same stitch in the next row. This creates columns of knit and purl stitches. 

When choosing ribbing for socks, you can consider:

• Firmness: The cuff should be firm but not too loose or saggy.
