TECHNICAL EDITING AND ORIGINAL KNITTING PATTERNS

Cabled Socks Pattern in Simply Knitting 115

by | Dec 4, 2013 | Knitting Patterns, Simply Knitting

I’ve got two patterns in the new issue of Simply Knitting, so I’ll start with these cabled socks, which appear in the free supplement.

Knitted in Rowan Fine Art, I played around with cable slip stitch patterns to show of the variegation of the yarn.

The pattern is easy to learn as the repeat is only 4 rows, which make these socks a great tv knitting project.  They are worked top down on 2mm needles, the ribbing designed to flow nicely into the pattern.

This yarn is scrummy to work with – 45% wool, 20% mohair, 10% silk and 25% polyamide, making these socks really soft and cosy! I love how each of the slipped stitches shows up as a different colour.

Simply Knitting issue 115 (January 14) is available for £4.99 on the 6th Dec (in all good newsagents!)  You can also purchase online it at Zinio.

The mittens in the top right corner of the mag are also my design – I’ll be posting about them tomorrow!
