Inspired by windswept snowbanks, the Cecily socks feature a flowing, travelling cable pattern that runs up and down this classy design. There’s even a cute cabled detail at the back of each ankle for a unique twist!

The pattern in I Like Knitting has only the toe up instructions, a cuff down version is added to the Ravelry download

The pattern is written for magic loop, but can easily be modified for double pointed needles.
