These striking socks feature a veritable quagmire of interlacing cables framed by meandering stockinette. The cable patterning is centered over the front of the leg and top of the foot, leaving the remainder of the sock in comfortable stockinette.

These socks are worked from the top down. The pattern includes charted stitch patterns and written instructions. The left and right socks are similar but not identical.

Skills/Techniques Required:

  • basic sock knitting skills
  • cables
  • grafting using kitchener stitch

A kCDesigns version of this pattern, already set up for use in KnitCompanion, is available through Create2Thrive.
