This is a simple and beautiful sock knit from the top down, good for any level of sock knitting experience. Pattern calls for 2 circular needles. Techniques include knit, purl, ssk (slip,slip, knit), k2tog. The herringbone pattern really “pops” with lighter solid color yarns.

Errata 8/9/2011:
For Second Sock, Herringbone Gansey pattern should read “ * P1,K3. * Repeat to end of round.”

My apologies to anyone who anyone who downloaded the pattern before 8/10/2011! Pattern has now been corrected.
