Do you remember the tassels on mocassins? Why not have a tassel on a sock?

These toe-up socks are easy to knit, asking just a little bit attention at the toe, the heel and the cable motif on the leg, just enough not to get bored ;)

You can use your leftovers for the toe, the ribbing and the tassel.

I don’t explain how to do a tassel, as I guess there are enough instructions on the world wide web. I have done mine using a fork ;)

If you prefer for the heel, you can replace the wrap & turn method with the german short row method. You can also use your leftover yarn to knit the heel, as it is knit in rows. I prefer mine in the main colour.

The pattern is written in 3 sizes.

The sample is knitted in EU34 with 54 sts.
