A Game of Thrones is the first book in A Song of Ice and Fire, a series of fantasy novels by author George R. R. Martin. The story of A Song of Ice and Fire takes place mainly on the continent of Westeros.
House Greyjoy is one of the “Great Houses” of Westeros.

The Greyjoys rule from their castle Pyke which is located in the Iron Islands off the west coast of the continent. The Iron Islands are harsh and bleak and the Greyjoys have traditionally survived by raiding their neighbors, although they have always had plans to conquer the mainland. House Greyjoy’s sigil is traditionally a golden kraken on a black field.

I have not included specific instructions for heels or toes. Please use your favourite technique for knitting those portions of your socks. This pattern is not recommended for beginner sock knitters.
