Triantan

Looking for an interesting yet mellow knitting project? The Triantan socks feature a gorgeous and simple cable pattern that beautifully showcases your chosen yarn. Opt for a stunning hand-dyed yarn that will truly shine in the spotlight, and cast on to begin your new favorite sock project.

These toe-up socks are designed with a lovely cable pattern that gradually emerges over the instep. After working your way through the heel, the intricate cable design continues elegantly at the back of the sock, making these socks not only warm and cozy but also visually captivating.

Size: S-L (60-70 sts) to fit a foot circumference of 8-9’’ / 20-23 cm—perfect for a variety of foot sizes!

Yarn: For this project, use Skein Queen Crush (75 % merino, 25 % nylon, 425 m/100 g) or another fingering weight yarn that catches your eye. You'll need just 1 skein. Keep in mind that the required yardage may vary based on the size you choose and the length of the foot you are knitting.

Needles: US 1 (2.25 mm) circular needles or double-pointed needles (dpns) are recommended. Adjust your needle size as necessary to achieve the correct gauge for your project.

Gauge: 16 sts x 22 rows = 2x2’’ / 5x5 cm in stockinette stitch (after blocking). Accurate gauge is crucial for ensuring the best fit for your socks.

Other Supplies: Don’t forget to have a cable needle and a tapestry needle on hand to help you with this delightful project.

If you’re on the lookout for a fun and engaging knitting experience, the Triantan socks are the perfect blend of technique and creativity.
