This unique design features a large center panel with diagonally crossing cables flanked by asymmetrical cables and cute little 2-stitch cables on either side. The design is ankle-length but can be knitted to desired length, and the light fingering yarn means the cables aren’t too thick to fit comfortably in your shoes. These socks are great for knitters comfortable with cables who want to show off their skills.

The design includes a chart for the cables and the sock construction is provided in written form.

These socks can easily be done either one or two at a time.
