Jazz up your socks with this fun combination of honeycomb and serpentine cables. The Patisserie socks are worked seamlessly from the cuff down using a heel flap and gusset construction. The instructions aren’t specific to one method of working in the round and can easily be adapted to Magic Loop, DPNs or small circular needles.
