Simply Pomegranate
The seed-stitch filled cable pattern on the instep and front of leg resembles a ripe pomegranate. The Pomegranate cable is combined with tailored “pin- stripe” ribbing, which gives a secret visual bonus, slenderizing your foot without dieting :)), or for those with a narrow foot, adding heft without having to eat cheesecake. (Is that good or bad?) Magic, I know.
On an architectural note, this sock is knit toe up, has a full gusset, and faux heel flap style heel. The pattern includes options for various toe styles and cuff patterns.
Please note, this is a charted knit pattern.
