Lanyard socks

Welcome to the January 2009 installment of the Politically Incorrect Sock Club! This delightful sock pattern features elegant columns of fascine rib, creating a tidy and snug-fitting design that perfectly hugs your foot. The clever use of a slip-stitch rib pattern not only enhances the visual appeal of the socks but also expertly breaks up any pooling from hand-dyed yarns, ensuring a beautiful result every time.

Knit these fabulous socks with our Politically Incorrect squishy 100% Wool yarn, available in the vibrant colorway Slap & Tickle. Each pair is crafted using a toe-up construction method, incorporating a provisional cast-on and a comfortable short-row heel for an enjoyable knitting experience. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting out, this pattern will provide you with the skills and techniques needed to create beautiful, wearable art.

For those interested in mastering the toe-up provisional cast-on technique using a crochet hook, we have a detailed tutorial available at the blog. Happy knitting and enjoy making your unique pair of socks with style!
