Thick sport weight socks are perfect for keeping your feet warm in cold weather. Celtic cable knots are placed just below the cuff so they peek out above your boots while simple cables run down the sides of the leg, heel flap, and foot to keep the knitting interesting.

Construction Notes
Top down socks with standard heel flaps. The cables are worked with one strand of twisted stitches for added textural depth. Try cabling without a cable needle to make the knitting go more smoothly and quickly.
