PATTERN NOTES

The Bica socks are knit from the toe-up with a German short-row heel. Instructions are written for working the magic loop method but you can substitute with DPNs if you wish. The stitch pattern creates a mock cable effect along the front of the sock, the sole and back of the leg is worked in stockinette. The leg length is easily adjustable.
