If your’re looking for a pair of simple socks with a new twist, the Roman Architecture Socks might be just what your needles need. The majority of the sock is mindless knitting, with a bit of spice added in at the heel. This pattern uses the Strong Heel, which means no heel flap and no picking up stitches! If you’re new to this heel construction this is the perfect pattern for getting your toes and heels wet ;-)
