“So simple, but so elegant - a single cable runs from the cuff to the toe on these socks, and there’s a matching one on the back too. The slipped-stitch heel adds extra strength to make them ideal for everyday wear.” Designer recommends a solid colour yarn to show off the cables.

The sizing has 2 cm of negative ease for the smaller two sizes and 1.5 cm negative ease for the larger size.
