I Smell Snow
The I Smell Snow socks are a top-down construction that features one interlocking cable and two single cables that are flanked with bobbles on alternating sides. The pattern includes instructions for a Slip Stitch Heel and Gusset, with a basic toe.
Video links are provided in the pattern for all cabling techniques, bubbling technique, as well as the german twisted cast on, and Kitchener stitch.
The pattern has written and charted instruction for sizes small, medium, and large.
Sizing:
Choose the size that gives you 1-2 inches of negative ease.
Sizing is based on foot circumference, not the length. To figure out the length of foot you need to knit, use the row gauge to calculate the number of rounds you will need to knit for your foot size and subtract by 1.5(1.75,2) inches for the toe or try your sock on as you go!
S (M, L) – Circumference 8-9” (9-10”, 10-11”)
Yarn:
100g of superwash fingering weight.
Suggested Yarn:
Stress Knits: I Smell Snow on Favorite Base 80% Superwash Merino / 20% Nylon.

I am a tight knitter and I’ve found that most knitters get gauge by sizing down one needle size from my recommendation.
