This pattern is available as a free Ravelry download

These socks are knit toe up, two at a time, magic loop. The stitches of each sock will be divided evenly between the front needle and the back needle. The cable pattern will be worked on the front needle stitches only. Pattern is written to fit a medium foot but can easily be adapted if you know your standard stitch count that you like to cast on for your own foot.

The cables on each foot are mirror images of each other. The instructions for both feet are written side by side so you don’t have to flip between pages.

This pattern is an intermediate level pattern. You should already have an understanding of knitting magic loop and toe up. I do include some basic instructions for starting the toe.

This pattern does not include heel instructions. I use the Fish Lips Kiss heel which is available for $1 on Ravelry and is linked to in the pattern. You can of course substitute your preferred heel method.

Feel free to knit socks from my pattern for personal use and for others but please give credit to me as the pattern designer.
