Trekking Cable Socks
They are DONE!!!
Trekking XXL color 109
Crystal Palace size 1 (2.25mm)
72 stitches
6 stitch cable each side of sock
2 purl each side of cable
Cuff: 4 inches 2X2 rib while continuing cable
Russian bind off using size 3 needle
I love these socks! They were fun to knit, I think due to the cable. It added interest and made it go faster (knit, knit, knit, cable row!) I like the Trekking yarn. It fades from one color to the next, and it is the right weight for all season socks. At least here in Colorado. I will definately make these socks again. Maybe modify the pattern a bit. Maybe do the rib up the foot as well, and maybe do five rows between the cables instead of four.
I have already cast on the Carousel Claudia Handpainted Yarn.
