Inspiration can come from anywhere! The color of this yarn along with its name “Cheesecake” made me think of birthday cakes I had as a child with the classic little hard candies that adorned the edges. I really love the look of cables but don’t always enjoy knitting them! So these little faux eyelet cables fit the bill! I hope you enjoy making and wearing them as much as I have!

These socks are knit from the cuff down with an easy to memorize faux cable stitch pattern and classic heel flap and gusset.
