I’m a mirror match-type person. I loved the Nixen Socken stitch pattern the moment I saw it. But…. the other sock just looked weird in the same stitch going the same way.

So, I wrote this pattern to complement that pattern. This pattern reverses that stitch to create a sock that spirals in the opposite direction. So, you can now have one sock going one way.. and the other mirroring it going the other way. Spiral in, keep going! Spiral out!

Please see Nixen Socken itself for the original stitch pattern.

This is a stretchy stitch that even goes over my fat little legs. As written, you’ll end up with a pair of cute summer socks and enough yardage left over for another little pair of socks from one skein of Socketta for a US size 9 woman’s foot.
