I started knitting these socks at a yarn show while trying out a new yarn called Sole Mates. I wanted a pattern that was easy to knit while talking to customers, but still fun and engaging.
The small cable details along the sides add just enough texture to keep each row interesting, without complicated counting or constant pattern-checking.
A perfect cozy project for any knitter!
