The Bear Mountain socks are knit cuff down and in the round. The slipped stitch cables feature a cluster detail that creates an interesting variation on a classic idea. They are written for magic loop, though can easily be altered for double pointed or 9” circular knitting needles and are available in three adult sizes. This pattern works best with solid, tonal or slightly speckled fingering weight yarn.
