These socks feature a simple twist pattern that runs down the heel flap. The twists are all one way on one sock, and the opposite way on the other, so you have a mirrored effect. These are excellent TV and car knitting, because there is really only one row to pay attention to. I think they are particularly nice in a variegated yarn without the pattern getting lost.
