About Sillage
The stitch pattern used in Sillage is a very subtle cable pattern, almost a hint or sillage of a cable.
Sillage is worked cuff down, beginning with a ribbed cuff, and a subtle cable pattern on
the front of the leg and top of the foot. The ribbing from the cuff continues on the back of the leg and onto the heel flap. The sock ends with a wedge toe. The stitch pattern is both written and charted and the instructions are needle-neutral to accommodate your preferred method of working in the round.
