Boone

Experience the joy of crafting cabled and ribbed socks with our unique toe-up knitting pattern! These lovely cabled socks feature a delightful cable twist design that elegantly flows up the sides from toe to cuff, perfectly complemented by ribbing that fills in the space on the instep and sole. Designed with comfort in mind, this pattern ensures that the cable work is beautifully maintained over the short-row heel, providing both style and practicality. Made using a thick cotton/silver/lycra yarn, these socks cushion and pamper your feet, while a slight gusset prevents any binding at the heel. The short leg design makes these socks ideal for comfort, especially during the warmest months of the year. Quick to knit and cheerful in appearance, these happy socks add a twist of sophistication to your wardrobe!

Boone, North Carolina, holds a special place in my heart as one of my favorite vacation getaways. Known for its unique blend of funky and crunchy vibes, Boone is beautifully nestled in the stunning Blue Ridge Mountains. The yarn used in this pattern, SilverSpun, is proudly made in Carolina and is designed and spun right on the NC State University campus. This connection is particularly meaningful to me, as my first job was at NCSU, making these socks a cherished reminder of my roots and experiences. Whether you are a novice or an experienced knitter, this pattern is perfect for anyone looking to explore the delightful combination of cable stitches and ribbing, all while celebrating a beloved region.
