Designed to celebrate the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, these socks feature cables and lace to represent all of the winter sports, and beads for the Gold!!!

These are knit cuff down with a heel flap, on 2 circular needles, or Magic Loop. If you choose to incorporate beads, then 34 - 6/0 or 8/0 beads and a size 12-14 crochet hook is also needed. The beads chosen will depend upon your choice of yarn. The pattern contains charts, as well as line by line instructions. Any yarn that would provide the same gauge can be substituted.
