    About

    Toe-up socks with a wide (wedge) toe - two alternating closed-ring cable motifs are worked on the instep while the sole is worked in Stockinette. Once increases for the gusset have been completed, the short-row heel cap is worked leading into a slipped stitch heel flap; no need to pick up stitches. A variation of the cable motif is worked on the back leg. The bind off requires the knitter to be able to identify knit and purl stitches.

      These are really lovely. I want to have a go at knitting some socks but as yet have not had the courage!
