Ideal for wearing with a pair of casual loafers, these simple ribbed socks have a twist -- a panel of intertwined cables on top of the foot. Loafers not your style? Simply position the panel at the side of the leg instead.

This pattern has been written stitch for stitch so that knitters may choose to work using double points, two circulars, or magic loop as desired.
