Virden is a mirrored pair of cable socks, each beginning at the outside of the leg and using increases and decreases, meeting at the centre of the foot.

Using CraftyJak’s Boutique Tough & Tender, this pair is wonderfully cushy and cozy, while also being strong enough to wear all winter (even in our notoriously harsh prairie weather).

Techniques used:

  • Knitting in the round
  • Cable knitting
  • Reading Charts
  • Kitchener stitch/grafting
  • Short rows & turn heel
