A milky caffè latte, masterfully made with foam art, is a drink of decadence. Meant to be sipped slowly and savoured, caffè lattes are perfect for meeting a friend, settling into your morning, or simply enjoying with a good book. And the Caffè Latte socks are no different. Featuring their own latte art swirls down the front and knit in slub yarn for that extra foamy texture, these socks are ready to elevate moments of decadence at all times.

Sizes
There are four sizes in the pattern, 1 (18cm foot circumference), 2 (20cm foot circumference), 3 (22.5cm foot circumference), and 4 (25cm foot circumference). Note that the sizes listed are measured around the sock, so find your size by measuring your foot and then subtracting 10%.

Yarn and Yardage
These socks are designed to be knit in slub sock for extra textural goodness, but the large front cables lend themselves well to any fingering weight sock yarn. Slub, tweed, striped, variegated, tonal -the choice is yours. Approximately 185-270 yards are needed.

Notions
Knitting needles (DPNs or circulars), cable needle, stitch markers, darning needle, and sock blockers.

Techniques
This pattern is suitable for knitters who are familiar with cuff down, in the round, heel flap and gusset sock construction. Basic knowledge of cabling is also needed.

The front cable pattern is given as both charted and written instructions.
