Spring tendril socks
Fresh leaves on swirling tendrils; the perfect springtime socks! With leafy lace and twisted stitches in the front, increases and decreases which add subtle waves to the sides of the socks, and a simple yet stylish cable along the back of the leg, these socks are interesting from all angles as well as fun to knit.
Skills required: Magic Loop knitting in the round, Judy’s Magic Cast On, Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bindoff, wrap-and-turn short rows, twisted stitches, basic lacework.
These socks are knitted toe-up using Magic Loop. Since the pattern is worked across the entire front of the socks with twisted stitches, I would not recommend knitting them on DPNs. It may be possible to figure out for someone more familiar with DPN knitting than myself, but the pattern is written for Magic Loop only, and I cannot offer any advice or support on using DPNs for this pattern.
Note that although the pattern includes written instructions for the sock, the stitch pattern itself is presented in chart form only.
Also included in the pattern are instructions for a short row heel using the wrap-and-turn technique. Any other short row heel can be substituted if you happen to prefer another short row technique.
