Canobie Cable
Immerse yourself in the art of knitting with our stunning cable-knit sock pattern, reminiscent of the thrilling roller coasters at Canobie Lake Park, my family's beloved amusement destination. These exquisite top-down socks feature intricate twisted-stitch cables that gracefully undulate around the leg and instep, offering both a challenging knit and a fashionable finish. Each sock is designed with a traditional heel-flap and gusset, ensuring a perfect fit while enhancing the overall elegance of the design. The captivating cable pattern flows unbroken around the leg, continuing seamlessly into a stylish ribbed heel and elegantly twining over the instep all the way to the toe.
Because of the complex cable work, this sock pattern is not easily adjusted in size simply by changing the stitch count. Instead, we recommend that knitters alter the leg circumference by switching to a different needle size—either going up or down—to achieve the best fit for your unique foot shape.
This pattern is versatile for all knitting preferences. If you enjoy knitting with charts, you can conveniently print pages 2-4 for easy reference. For those who prefer detailed written directions, simply print pages 2 and 5-6 to guide you through each step. Dive into this delightful knitting project, and bring a touch of amusement park nostalgia to your wardrobe!
