Product Details

I really enjoy knitting and wearing heavy weight socks. They go very fast and with a yarn like Andrea Mae the result is very plush. These socks feature an offset cable that is mirrored on each foot flanked by plenty of squishy ribbing. The horseshoe cable made me think of a spine.

Details: The foot of the sock is knit the purl side out so the inside is smooth for the wearer. The sock is knit as a tube then the heel is knit last. That is the only finishing. Be sure to read all of the instructions for each section prior to starting.

Sizes: Womens, (Mens/Womens Wide, Mens Wide) As these socks are knit from the toe up it is very easy to adjust width and length.

Needle: size 4/3.5mm DPNs and size 5/3.75mm DPNs or 1 long circular in each size. The gauge is a little weird because it is measured with a non-standard gauge pattern. With the larger needles I knit 19 sts of 1x1 and 4 sts of 2x2 cable for 23 sts total. This gave me 3 inches unstretched.

Notes
The sample was knit in Studio June Andrea Mae DK. Cascade 220 Superwash is a suitable alternative.
