Balsam Point Socks
Balsam Point Socks feature a geometric design that’s reminiscent of a colorwork pattern. You’ll create the angled stitches with 1x1 twists that don’t need a cable needle! After working through the patterned cuff, you’ll sail smoothly through the rest in meditative stockinette. Choose a solid or semi solid yarn to best show off the twisted stitches - try out the included “mini swatch” tip to confirm your color choice!
This pattern assumes knowledge of basic sock construction. Both charts and written directions are provided for all stitch patterns. A video tutorial link is included for the 1x1 twists without a cable needle used to create the geometric pattern.
