Sometimes, a simple yet captivating texture is all you need to elevate your sock-making game. This beginner-friendly sock pattern, named Sylcan, is the perfect way to transform a basic vanilla sock into something with a touch more personality and flair, all while avoiding the complexities that can overwhelm new knitters.
Designed to be worked in the round, Sylcan includes both cuff-down and toe-up written directions, making it incredibly versatile for knitters of all skill levels.
