Cable Yoga Socks
These unique socks do not have toes or heels, allowing you to grip the mat as you do yoga and still keep your feet warm. Without toes or heels, these socks also make for a quick and easy knitting pattern. The twisted cable pattern adds great texture to these stylish yoga socks. The socks are a great way for beginners to practice the cable technique.

lately i feel like i have been drooling over these socks and knit patterns but i dont know how to knit and i wish there was a crotchet pattern for these babies. i looked up a cable stich crotchet pattern but it didn't turn out like the knit pattern so it seems i can't crotchet everything.

These cable Yoga socks are the thing if you are into yoga. They are simple to make and so cute. I may try making a pair for a friend of mine that is into yoga. The pattern calls for double pointed needles and you will need some experience if you try this pattern.

I also want to know the way to cast on the 24 stitches after you bind off the 24 sts. Right now I have the 2 dpneedles with the 12 sts of cable pattern on each. What now?

I'm knitting the yoga sock and have completed the "twisted Rib St. and I'm about to begin the "Foot" After I bind off the rib st. how far do I knit before I start the foot? The heel looks larger then a slit. Perhaps it's because it's after my bedtime. Would appreciate help on this. Marge Wiley shop owner
