Outward Bound Socks

These socks are designed to be simple but effective, with just enough rhythm to the knitting to make you want to do a little bit more. The textured panel along the top and front of the sock is easy to work and bold enough that it can take a variegated or striping yarn, but this pattern will work equally well in a solid or semi-solid yarn, with contrast cuffs and toes. The socks are worked from the top-down, with a heel flap and turn construction for maximum adjustability. Three sizes are offered, with 56, 64 or 72 stitch counts.
