Undulating Cable Socks
Undulating Cable Socks Knitting Pattern
Introducing our beautiful Undulating Cable Socks, a perfect blend of style and comfort. These socks feature a central cable, elegantly flanked by undulating lines that periodically intersect, creating a visually striking design. The heel flap utilizes slipped stitches for added strength, ensuring durability with every wear. To highlight the intricate cable work, the sole is crafted using purl stitches, providing a stunning visual contrast. The addition of a ribbed gusset ensures a secure and comfortable fit, effectively hugging the contours of your foot. The sophisticated design is completed with cables that gracefully decrease to a point at the toe, offering a polished finish.
**PATTERN DIFFICULTY LEVEL:** Intermediate. This pattern requires a variety of knitting skills, including creating unique cables, picking up stitches, executing short-row shaping, and performing both increases and decreases. It's a great way to challenge yourself and advance your skills.
SIZES: Available in Adult Medium (L) sizes, designed to fit foot circumferences of 9 (10)“ /22.5 (25)cm. With about 0.5-1”/ 1.25-2.5 cm of negative ease, these socks will provide a snug and cozy fit.
