A bold cable flanked by twisted stitches and smaller cables adorn Diascia, while ribbing and a tidy variation on a short row heel make for a perfect-fitting and pretty pair of socks. They begin at the cuffs which elegantly flow into the cable and rib pattern to the shadow-wrap heel. The socks continue with the cable motif on the foot and end with a simple rounded toe.
