20 stitches and 30 rows to 10cm square over stocking stitch when using 3.75mm needles.

MY DESIGN IDEAS AND ADVICE
I named this pattern Tra because it is the Irish for beach and the ridges on the sock remind me of the ridges the sea makes on the beach as it laps the shore. The Mohair Tweed is a gorgeous yarn to knit with, it has colours that twinkle at you as you knit each stitch.
