The Espresso Con Panna is a cuppa espresso topped with whipped cream. The strong taste of the espresso is softened by adding the whipped cream.

For these socks, I have replicated the look of an Espresso Con Panna using a textured pattern to represent the coffee’s foam with the whipped cream on top.

This pattern will take on a different look depending on if you knit with variegated yarn versus a tonal yarn versus a self-striping yarn.

So grab your Espresso Con Panna, your yarn and your needles, and cast on your socks. Happy Knitting!

These socks are knit using the magic loop method (although the purchaser could easily adapt it for two circulars or double points).

This pattern includes toe-up and cuff-down instructions.

The socks are knit using Judy’s Magic Cast-On, ending with Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bind-Off, or using the German Twisted Cast-On, ending with Kitchener stitch.

The knitter needs to be comfortable with the following techniques: knit, purl, knit two together (k2tog), knit through the back loop (ktbl), M1L, M1R, slipped stitches, slip slip knit (SSK), and wrap and turns (W+T). Instructions for all these techniques are included in the pattern. In addition, a video tutorial for the shadow wrap technique of W+T for short rows has been recorded by the designer.

This pattern includes instructions in both written and chart forms for 56 stitch, 64 stitch, and 72 stitch socks.
