Zsolt’s massive socks ~ European size 43!! Mix-and-Match Rib Sock Recipe (I chose Bamboo Rib). Sizing from afar can be a little tricky, but Silka was able to sneak me his shoe size, and – so I hear – we did pretty well! The color was a bit boring for my liking, but that’s what Vicky was sure her dad liked in socks --- BORING.
