Selenography is the scientific study of the moon, and the related geographical mapping of the moon’s surface. These socks are inspired by the surface of the moon: rounded cables and textured stitches representing craters, ridges, and rocky lunar plains.

Additional materials:

  • Tapestry needle
  • Sock blockers (optional)
  • Cable needle
  • Stitch markers (optional)

Note that because of the cable stitches along the front, the socks have a snug fit, particularly at the ankles.
