Notes
• Use the 4/4 LC cable on your left foot sock and 4/4 RC cable on your right foot sock.
• When knitting the horizontal cable panel, the decreases alternate between k2tog and k3tog.
• When picking up sts pick up 2 sts, skip 1; rep from will give you a more even result.
• Use the Finchley Graft Method (link to video tutorial) instead of 3 needle bind off for a
smoother seam. It’s super easy!
• I-cord(link to tutorial)
* Pattern uses Knitting Cast on Method when casting on for the horizontal cable panel. There’s a stich by stitch tutorial in the pattern.
