The Broken Twist Socks feature a cable rib pattern that is way easier to knit than it looks, with cabling only taking place every 8th round. The sock uses the Strong Heel, which results in an extra comfortable heel that hugs the foot quite nicely.

Pattern has been thouroughly tested and I offer full pattern support via Ravelry message.
