Tyto Socks are striped socks with a twist! The back and sole are simple stripes, but the instep has chevrons and cute interlocking cables. They are knit top down, with a German Short Row heel and a rounded toe. They are designed as ankle socks, but are easy to lengthen. This pattern is written using magic loop, but you can use whatever small circumference method you prefer!
