This richly textured stocking is a festive riot of ribbony swirls from cuff to toe! Knit from the top down, its engaging Aran cable patterns change direction constantly as the shap e narrows to the heel, while staying within the theme. It's a great way to use that special, single skein of heritage wool yarn. While the overall effect is deliciously complex, the stitchwork is entirely made up of 2 x 2 cable crosses, placed within a straightforward sock construction; the instructions are both written and charted. This stocking makes a great gift and is a festive, quick knit to sit back and enjoy while getting your holiday spirit on.
