Finished foot circumference: 7.5 (8.25, 9, 9.5, 10.25)“

This sock has been sized for both men and women, and the twisted cable pattern doesn’t need a cable needle - easy to knit in front of the TV when you need a little zoning out time, yet still gorgeous when you put them on!

The gusset decreases are not done in the traditional way, and decrease away the rib to create an attractive point before the sock finishes in stocking stitch.

A note on yarn quantities: As these are knit in DK weight yarn, you won’t be able to get away with the traditional 100g ball. The sample sock used 140g of yarn, for a size medium with a 9.5” foot length.
