Pattern update (layout and a minor pattern change) coming in January 2020 - purchase the pattern now and receive the update automatically.
A vertical ribbed, mini-cable pattern (no cable needle required), suitable for women’s and men’s socks. Knit cuff down using your choice of sock knitting methods: DPNs, Magic Loop, or two circulars.
Some helpful notes:
- Probably already obvious -- you want a sock with negative ease -- around 1” of negative ease
- Small is a cast on of 64 stitches which (for me) yields a gauge of 8 st/inch on 2.25mm needles. This results in a sock with an un-stretched circumference of 8” -- if you want a tighter sock, use smaller needle. If you want a looser sock, use a larger needle.
- Medium is a cast on of 72 stitches and is a 9” circumference using the guidelines above.
- Check the label on your yarn to see which needle size you should start with in order to get gauge in the pattern.
Choose your favorite fingering weight sock yarn to highlight the pattern and yarn combination.
