About
The Volta Socks are a pair of top-down, ribbed socks. Reminiscent of the vaulted ceilings of some of history’s greatest cathedrals and palaces, they feature a simple, arched cabled motif just below the cuff and at either side of the heel.
The pattern includes both written and charted instructions, and is suitable for intermediate knitters.

Construction
These socks are worked top-down in a ribbed pattern. A simple cabled motif is worked just below the cuff and at either side of the heel, which is worked flat and finished with gusset decreases through the foot before the toe is worked and stitches are bound off.
