This pattern is for a pair of ornately cabled socks. The cable itself is an old celtic cable that is not often seen but is just perfect for socks. There’s enough “give” to make them comfortable, but enough unusual cabling to make them interesting to look at and fun to knit.

Skill Level: Intermediate - Intermediate + (assuming a basic knowledge of knitting and purling, and cabling).

The cable stitch is both charted and written out line by line.

This pattern is written for 2 circular needles and is written for sizes Small, Medium and Large. (Be sure to adjust yarn size if you are making size L to either 7 st’s/ inch or 6.5 st’s/inch.

The sock pictured here was made with Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock yarn, in colorway, Navy. (https://lornas-laces.myshopify.com/collections/all/shephe...)
