The Echoes of Erebor Socks is a cuff-down, textured and cable sock pattern for DK weight yarn. The cable pattern can be created without a cable needle and a video tutorial link is provided to demonstrate the method. The instructions are written for a mid-calf height sock; however, the pattern is customizable to your preferred leg length and preferred heel turn. A chart is provided for the design. If printing this pattern, see page 2 to determine which pages are needed for your size.
