Inspired by the beautiful, glittering icicles clinging to the eaves, this twisting cable pattern trickles down the length of these socks.

These cozy, cabled socks are fun to knit. Beginning with a ribbed pattern, the cabled lines grow across the face of the sock, twisting down the center and gracefully reaching across to the sides. The design is worked on front and back of the leg and continues down the top of the foot after working a heel flap with gusset decreases. Stitch pattern is charted only.

Sample is 8.5” leg circumference
