Did you know "fika' means "tea time" in Finland? Well, you do now. Because the Finnish use tea and cozy socks to warm themselves up during cold winters. So does everyone at ML HQ. We invite you to jump on the bandwagon. These socks use Dralon cotton yarn, a cotton and acrylic mix yarn. Cotton by itself tends to result in socks that gradually become rougher and stiffer over many washes and wears. Acrylic is a good material for socks, as it brings and maintains softness. Some other features of Dralon cotton: hypo-allergenic, easy to clean, quick-drying and odor-resistant.
