A perfect sock pattern for knitting your festive socks, whether they are in a Candy Cane colour way or not. The design works really well on solid, semi-solid or self-striping yarn. The pattern is a rib with a twist, the twisted stitch cable runs up the rib to mimic the swirl on the candy canes. It is a very easy to remember repeat meaning you can have cosy festive feet in no time.
