Trail in the Meadow
I’ve spent a lot of time hiking lately. With my adventuring options severely limited by the pandemic, getting into nature and exploring winding trails through woods and meadows has been a balm for my soul. The cabling pattern on these socks mimics those winding hikes – and the pattern looks great in a solid or a wildflower speckled yarn. Have fun exploring!

What test knitters had to say:
“I enjoyed that the cable design looked more complicated than it was to knit. I also found it to be a fast knit.”
“Easy to follow and clearly written instructions.”
“I liked being able to use both chart and written instructions. The cabling was not too difficult nor impossible to tackle.”
“I love the pattern on the leg, I liked that the trail on the foot opened right up when put on the foot. I happen to like 1x1 and 1x2 twists because I can do them without a cable needle.”
