Wisp Socks
Wisp Socks feature lots of texture in twisted stitches and garter for a fun and satisfying sock project. The wavy stitches look like cables, but you’ll never need to use a cable needle since these stitches are just made with increases and decreases. Five sizes make these perfect for anyone on your knitting list, and the twisted ribbing helps create an even better fit. Choose a favorite solid or semi solid color to show off your stitch work!
This pattern assumes knowledge of basic sock construction, working twisted stitches, increases, and decreases. Both charts and written directions are provided for all stitch patterns. A video tutorial link is included for the twisted decreases used in the pattern.
