Vintage Honeycomb Ornaments Socks
This sock pattern utilizes cable stitches to create a honeycomb pattern reminiscent of classic paper Christmas decorations.
Construction: Knit cuff-down in the round using magic loop, but can be easily converted to DPNs or 9” circulars. It includes instructions for an eye-of-partridge heel flap, French heel turn, gusset, and rounded toe.
Sizes: I have included instruction for sizes XS (for children) all the way to Adult LG.
Skill Level: Experienced Beginner- Intermediate. Needs a basic understanding of cable work and the kitchener method for closing the toe.
The pattern includes written instructions as well as charts for the stitch patterning and there will be video tutorials included in the near future.
