I have a pattern in there: Freshman Cable Socks... Wanna see a teaser?
(Thanks to emilyshmemily for modeling!)
I’m really inspired by the way you can draw simple lines and geometric shapes with basic cables; the design happens from the placement of the cables, rather than the detail of the cable itself.
This project uses cables that are elongated and stacked in a spiraling, angular design. The left and right sock mirror each other for added interest.
I originally wanted these socks to be like your freshman year in a new endeavor… jump in and get started!
But maybe these are just socks to wear to the library. Either way.
Just saw these on the Lorna's Laces blog, and I have to tell you, I love them!!! They look like... you know sometimes you get a dessert and the chef decorates the plate with parallel strands of a sauce, and then takes a fork and nudges the straight lines to one side or another? That's what these socks look like to me! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!Very pleasing to look at. A real work of art! xoxo Mamaewe
ReplyDeleteThose are super cute! I'm loving your blog. I jsut found it today via a link to your cuffs on Threadbanger. I'm totally adding those cuffs to my "must-make" list. I'd love to link to them as well if you didn't mind!
ReplyDeleteHi my name is Jessie and I have followed knit picks for a while, but never stopped by for a comment. I LOVE THESE SOCKS!!! Am I able to obtain a pattern for them, I want to start working on them tonight. I love knitting, it help untie the knots in my mind and in my heart, and making these socks would be perfect!
ReplyDeleteYou know I love, love, love these. I told my SS students to check them out for male-ish inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI also loved meeting you! Until the next time...
