Our Handcrafted Wool Slipper Socks are completed with an embroidery pattern of triangles around the sock opening resembling the clamshell called the cherrystone. The embroidery pattern of triangles along the sock opening is done by a special sewing machine, which a craftsman uses to embroider each sock one by one. After embroidering with the sewing machine, the craftsman finishes the distinctive shell pattern by knitting the rest by hand.
