Inconceivable Socks

Introducing an enchanting pair of socks made entirely of twisted, traveling rib—truly an innovative design! This is the second pattern in my beloved Princess Bride series, and these socks feature a stunning twisted rib cuff. The captivating ribbing flows in and out, evoking the delicate curves of a goblet, because as Vizzini would say, "I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me." Alternatively, you might see an hourglass shape, symbolizing how time ran out for our clever antagonist! Whatever your interpretation, remember that not knitting these beautiful socks would be a classic blunder—most famously known as the mistake of "never get involved in a land war in Asia."

This unique sock pattern is available in two sizes—Medium (72 sts) and Large (84 sts). Keep in mind that the ribbing pulls in significantly, allowing for a snug fit; thus, they may knit up smaller than anticipated. However, they offer a remarkable range of stretch, ensuring comfort and versatility. The pattern calls for a stitch gauge of 9 stitches per inch (spi). Don't worry if you need to adjust the fit; you can easily size the pattern up or down by choosing lighter or bulkier yarn and using smaller or larger needles to modify the gauge.
