The inspiration behind these socks was a little pattern booklet that I picked up at an antique store in Missouri. It’s just too much fun to look through the vintage pattern booklets and while I wasn’t planning to make the sweater, I loved the idea of pairing a cable with a knit & purl repeating pattern.

With a little cable and some fun knit and purl pattering, the Patsy sock is sure to become a favorite in your wardrobe. A slipped stitch heel flap, square toe, and ribbed cuff are classics for my favorite socks.

This pattern is meant for an adventurous novice to advanced knitter and all those in-between.
