Vintage Purls

I’ve classified these fantastic cabled socks as men’s wear but they could most easily be worn by a women, the pattern makes up to a ten inch foot which is only just a little smidgen bigger than my feet (granted I’m not short, but I refuse to believe I have ginormous footsies).

This pattern comes from the booklet pictured below. Sadly it’s in a rather bad state of repair. Not only did a kindly soul decide to “mend” it by sticking brown paper round its spine, they also used the paper strip to make calculations on! Ah well, it’s better that I have it in bad condition than not at all. People, be kind to your patterns - one day some muggins like me will be cursing you and your highlighter/pen/pencil/sticky-tape repairs.

Get the sock pattern from the patterns section (Mens) as per normal.
