Twisting trees, deep pools, and moss-covered stones hide the secrets of the Limberlost… and inspire a combination of quick-to-knit moss stitch and cables in this cozy sock. I highly recommend a lighty speckled or tonal yarn for my A Girl of the Limberlost -based sock pattern to highlight the texture and cables. Note: Full instructions are provided for both the Left and Right Socks to help you navigate the mirrored design.
