Bitter & Twisted – with lacy holes to let in the ‘Bitter’ wind and ‘Twisted’ stitch cables to reflect the designer’s personality… Mwa ha ha ha! :-)

A neat line of cables and lace gives this sock a sophisticated look. It is surprisingly stretchy and offers superb comfort with no draughts (despite what I said earlier!). Knitted from the cuff down, the pattern features cables that are knit through the back loop, with a formation of eyelets to off-set it.

An ideal sock that would appeal to both men and women.
