These fun top down socks are inspired by Gilmore Girls and White Christmas.

“When you think I’ll zig, I’ll zag!” —Lorelai Gilmore
“The best things happen while you’re dancing.” —White Christmas

A quirky cable dances down the front of an otherwise easy knit.


This pattern includes written instructions, charts, and video tutorial support. This pattern has been tech edited and test knit.

This pattern is accessible to adventurous beginners as well as to more experienced knitters wanting to play with cables.


In addition to the PDF pattern, you will receive a Resources Page PDF with updated video tutorials (including how to knit this cable WITHOUT a cable needle!!), plus all the ways to find Mountain Song Designs around the internet.
