Sizing: These delightful socks come in one size ideal for women’s US sizes 7-8 or EU sizes 37-39. Don't worry if you're looking for a different size; you can easily modify it by adjusting gauge, needle size, and yarn choice!
Gauge: The perfect gauge for these socks is 30 stitches and 34 rows, which equals 4” [10 cm] in the beautiful cable pattern when using US2.5 (3 mm) needles. For those who prefer a slightly larger sock, you can also work with US4 (3.5 mm) needles. Remember to take the time to measure your gauge accurately to save time later on, and feel free to switch to larger needles if necessary!
Materials: To create these lovely cable socks, you will need one skein of Novita 7 veljestä yarn, comprised of 75% wool and 25% polyamide, with a weight of 100g and a length of 200m (219 yards) per skein. The sample color featured is Seitsemäs taivas in a lovely pink shade (522). For needles, use US2.5 (3 mm) or US4 (3.5 mm) double-pointed needles (dpns). Adjust your needle size according to the gauge and tension required for achieving the best fit for your socks. Additional tools needed include a cable needle, a tapestry needle for weaving in ends, and a stitch marker for keeping track of your rounds.
Embrace your creativity and knit yourself a gorgeous pair of cable socks that you'll treasure for years to come. Happy knitting!
