Over the Ocean Socks

With a plethora of stunning hand dyed sock yarns available, when creating the ‘Over The Ocean’ jumper patterns, I couldn’t resist the urge to create a matching sock pattern. The slip stitch cables really showcase special yarns by accentuating colour variations and speckles that create a beautiful ‘undulating’ texture representative of the flowing tides of a calm ocean glistening in the sun.

The Over The Ocean Socks are knit from the top down and in the round. The cuff features a 1x1 twisted rib and then the undulating slip stitch cable design is worked around the whole leg. This pattern continues into the heel which has a heel flap and gusset construction. The sole is knit in stockinette whilst the cable design continues along the top of the foot until the toe, which is worked in a classic wedge shape.
