Prismatic Reflection Socks
The Prismatic Reflection Socks are inspired by my sweater design of the same name (currently in testing!). These socks feature a slipped cable diamond motif that gives the appearance of a three-dimensional argyle pattern. The best thing about these cables is that they’re much simpler than they look, and they only ever require cabling two stitches at a time!
This sock pattern is knit toe-up and has two heel options. I recommend the Afterthought Heel, though you can choose to do a Shadow Wrap Heel if you’d prefer. This pattern has been tech-edited and tested.
Pattern includes charts and written instructions.
