These socks feature a bold slip stitch cable with two colors of fingering weight sock yarn. The main color is used for the cuff, heel, toe, and slip stitch columns while the contrast color creates garter stitch stripes. Choose two solid colors or try a marled self-striping yarn like Spincycle Yarns Dyed in the Wool for the smooth color changing stripes. These socks are knit top-down in the round, so you can easily customize the length of the leg and foot while you knit.
