Marmaris is a city in Turkey known for its pine honey, and it is also the inspiration for the Marmaris Socks. The socks feature a traditional cable pattern called the honeycomb stich that travels down the leg and foot of the sock, and their classic Aran feel is sure to keep you warm all winter.

The pattern is written for the magic loop technique, but you can easily substitute for double-pointed needles if you prefer. They are knit one at a time from the top down and use a short-row/mitered heel and a standard toe, but you can also substitute for your favorite heel and toe with a bit of manipulation.

For this pattern, you should be comfortable knitting in the round. Some skills you may need for this pattern include the long tail cast on, magic loop, Wrap & Turn, and Kitchener Stitch. This pattern is great for both experienced cable-knitters and those trying cables for the first time. If you find yourself unfamiliar with any terms or methods in this pattern, I suggest searching for them on YouTube. Recommended tutorials:
