Kephart Prong Trail is a 4-mile round trip hike in the Smoky Mountains National Park. Along the trail, you will see the remains of an old CCC camp, remnants of an old fish hatchery, and several footbridges before ending up at an Appalachian Trail shelter. We love trails that run along waterways and usually find so much flora and fauna when we hike. This is one of our favorite hikes. The pattern up the socks reminds me of the water as we hike beside it.

These socks are knit 2 at a time from the toe up, with your choice of toes and heels. This can be done as a magic loop or 2 circular needles. I separate my yarn into 2 equal balls and work from the separate balls for each sock. You can use a Ziploc bag and poke a hole in one side for the strand of ball 1 and another hole for the strand of ball 2 to keep them from tangling.

This pattern works for any number of stitches you use for socks. It also includes directions for a German short row heel, but you can use any heel that you prefer.
