The St. Lawrence river pushes the boundaries of what a “river” is, which is why French Canadians have their own word for it - “fleuve”. Mornings on the fleuve are a magical experience; the colour of the water as the sun reflects off it, the beauty of the sunrise, and the crisp morning air create an otherworldly experience. The Mornings on the Fleuve socks will keep your feet warm and cozy so you can watch the sun come up in total comfort.

Sizes
There are three sizes in the pattern: small (18cm / 7.25” foot circumference); medium (20cm / 8” foot circumference); and large (22.5cm / 9” foot circumference). Note that the sizes listed are measured around the sock, so find your size by measuring your foot and then subtracting 10%.

Yarn and Yardage
This pattern uses DK weight yarn. The yardage is approx. 165 - 215 yards, depending on size, with C1 needing 55 - 70 yards, and C2 needing 110 - 145 yards.

Notions
Knitting needles (DPNs or circulars), cable needle, stitch markers, darning needle, and sock blockers.

Techniques
This pattern has quite a bit of cabling, so a comfortable knowledge of cabling is a must. Other than that, this pattern is suitable for sock knitters who are familiar with cuff down, in the round, heel flap and gusset sock construction. The cable pattern is both charted and written.
