Quincy Cabled Socks

This is a pattern for a pair of socks that is knit from the top (cuff) down on two circular needles, with an optional 12-inch needle. The socks themselves are created using a single very ornate cable stitch that is quite unique insuring that cable knitters will love them. The cable stitch comes to us from the Japan. The cables add both a little warmth and durability to the socks, as well as show off your knitting prowess. The cables make quite a statement. They are a fairly “muted” cable that works very well with socks.

The focal stitch is both charted and written out line by line.

The directions are written for four sizes: small, medium and large, extra-large and are sized by gauge.

Skill Level: Intermediate (assuming a basic knowledge of knitting, cabling).

The yarn used to make the sample pair is Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock yarn in the colorway called Fjord.

Any light weight sock yarn will work for this pattern.
