I’m so excited about this reversible sock knitting pattern. This came about sort of accidentally, I created the stitch pattern and was swatching to see what it would look like, but couldn’t decide if i preferred the right or wrong side. I decided to make the sole in garter stitch for added squoosh and so it could be worn either way around.
The pattern is made up of twisted stitches, decreases and yarn overs, which give the appearance of cables and travelling stitches.
