The Royal Gorge, the “Grand Canyon of the Arkansas river”, is one of Colorado’s natural beauties, and at it’s deepest point, 1250 feet. The original bridge over the gorge was started in June of 1929 and was the highest suspension bridge in the world until 2001.

This sock pattern was designed for leftovers. Suspension bridges are formed with slipped-in-front stitches that are gathered together, and are over lacy canyons.
