Driftless Sock Motif

Enjoy the sharp cable angles inspired by the Driftless Area in the corners of MN/WI/IL/IA. Missed by glacial deposits or drift, this region enjoys bluffs, valleys, caves and karst geology bordered by the prairie. **Skill level** * Designed for sock knitters who have a set of favorite toes and heels, a preferred gauge for their best fit and are looking for patterns to plug into their personal sock recipe. * This pattern does not contain detailed toe, heel and cuff directions. **Pattern specs** * Written and charted directions for the Driftless Sock Motif * Directions for 9 stitch counts of socks, 44-76 stitches * Motif scaled for stitch counts * For toe up and cuff down socks * Cable directions explained with and without a cable needle **Printing tips** * Scroll through the pattern before you click “print all” - you do not need all the pages! * To minimize printing, find the chart or written directions that match your sock stitch count. **Yarn** Knit in fingering, sport, DK, etc and match your number of stitches to one of the charts!
