Named for the contrasts of highlight and shadow formed by twisted ribs framing delicate eyelets, this top-down pattern is written for knitting on two circular needles. It features Priscilla Wild’s short row heel (No muss! No fuss! No wraps! No holes!) and a kitchener-free toe.

Size: Women’s Medium/ U.S. W8-9. Yarn: Approximately 350 yards of fingering weight (shown in Aslan Trends Santa Fe -- two skeins required). Allow more yarn if you want a taller sock or if you are knitting for longer feet. Gauge: 8 stitches per inch. Needles: Two 24”-long circular needles in U.S. 1 / 2.5mm or size needed to obtain gauge.
