“Blue Steel” is the “model” look Ben Stiller uses in the movie Zoolander. My husband will turn and look at me with “blue steel” when he wants to make me laugh. When I saw that Leading Men had a colorway called Blue Steel, I had to make some socks for my husband with it!

Narrow ribs are woven with braided cables into wider ribs on the leg, then twisted back to narrow ribs on the instep.

Designed for the December 2020 Sock Knitters Anonymous Cables Challenge.

Suitable for both men and women. Four sizes (S, M, L, & XL) are charted so you can make these socks for almost anyone.

Yardage approx. 360 (380, 400, 420) yds
