Summer Season Socks have a central cable growing up the front of the foot and leg, with twisted stitches and an airy lace stitch either side. The back of the leg has been left plain stocking stitch, but the stitch pattern from the front of the leg could be incorporated into the back too. The pattern has directions for two leg lengths, a regular mid-calf length and also a shortie version.
The socks are knit from the toe up and have a wedge toe and a Wrap and Turn short row heel, however the heel and toe could easily be changed to your own choice. They are knit using the magic loop method but can be adapted to suit dpns.
The pattern has written instruction and a chart for the cable panel.
