Cabled slip-stitch socks
Very clever construction for stretchy and comfortable crochet socks.
Started: 25th March 2016
Finished: 17th August 2016
Pattern
Cabled slip stitch socks by Anna Lindmark (Ravelry link)
Materials
West Yorkshire Spinners Signature 4 Ply - shade 360, Bubblegum - bright turquoise! (Left overs from Freya's hat.)
3.5 mm hook for slip stitch, 2 mm hook for dc.
Notes
Very clever use of short-row slip stitch to create the cables. It took me a while to get the hang of it, but I really enjoyed making these socks.
The slip stitch makes them very stretchy and very comfortable fit. Maybe a bit loose for wearing in shoes, but great at home.
Ran out of the turquoise wool so the toes are in a different colour, though that was also left over from Freya's hat.
