Take your sock knitting to the next level with Wickery Socks, ornate cable knit socks.

Wickery socks were inspired by mushroom and berry picking in the forest - the rib pattern and intertwining stockinette ribbon cables resemble the structure of wicker baskets used to hold gathered mushrooms and fruit. They are worked cuff down, with base twisted rib pattern and cable pattern on the front of leg and on instep. It's a construction with slip-stitch heel flap and gusset decreases on sole, that give the sock a lighter feel!

It’s a focus and attention requiring pattern. Wonderful when you need to clear your mind and immerse yourself in the knitting process. Maybe you’re worried and want something to take your mind off things. Take a cup of your favourite tea and knit away, appreciating beautiful and original texture you create with your own hands.
