This sock pattern by Star Athena is one of five sock patterns available in the Spring 2011 issue of Sockupied, the new digital eMag from Interweave. Start at the toe and knit on up to the top… then hang a left turn and work the cuff sideways. Slipped stitches and unfussy lace pair with garter stitch to create a graphic design reminiscent of grapevines. The cuff is worked mostly in garter stitch, which produces nicely snug and elastic socks. Included in the eMag is a video tutorial by Eunny Jang on the sideways cuff technique.
