These socks were a gift I was in a rush to mail off, so I only took a couple of photos while they were in progress.
Pattern: Inlay from Knitty.com
Yarn used was from an indie dyer in the town I last lived in.
This project almost broke my hands because the twisted stitches on such a small gauge has a lot of tension. I also never really grokked the pattern in terms of the cabling, so I had to meticulously track each line of the pattern up until maybe the next to last repeat of the pattern.
If this helps, let me tell you where I first got tripped up in this pattern: this sock is worked like a front panel (shin side) and back panel (calf side), but worked in the round like a 3D printer. So when you first come to the end of the cabling motif, you’ve finished the shin panel; now repeat the same motif to finish the calf panel. When you’ve gone through all the rows of the motif, you’ll have very clear borders separating the front from the back. The cabling does not circle the leg.
Hope that helps!
Uuch, yeah, I just went and looked at the chart. Seems pretty challenging to find the rhythm. That’s part of why I set it aside initially; it looked kinda chaotic? Props to you making it through the whole thing. I guess the upside is that it is nearly impossible to see if you made a mistaken cross somewhere, lol.
