This sock pattern was a long time coming! It was made in collaboration with Ovis et cetera yarn, which allowed me to design socks in any colours under the sun. So, I looked at the cover art of the music I was listening to and both the colours and pattern name came to me: Transcendence.

The socks are knitted toe up, and you achieve your sock size by adjusting needle size and number of rows worked. The heel in the pattern has been modified since the top photo (photo 2 & 3), but I’ve included notes on how to make it with the colourwork across the heel in case you are up for the challenge.

I hope you will enjoy this pattern, and if you need any help or have any suggestions, this topic in my Ravelry group is the best place for support. Happy knitting!
