Cuff down

San Marco Socks are inspired by the arch design replicated over and over in the architecture of San Marco - Venice, Italy’s most famous sestiere. The San Marco Sock stitch pattern is an adventure for any cable lover.

San Marco Socks are top-down socks with a band heel and classic toe construction. The pattern includes written and charted instructions for the cable design. The pattern is written for magic loop knitting. It is highly recommended to work in this method because of the large size of the cable design. The pattern also contains links to helpful video tutorials and has been professionally tech edited.
