Amphitrite Socks

The colourwork pattern brings to mind both waves and Greek key patterns, so I named these after a Greek sea goddess.
The pattern assumes familiarity with stranded colourwork, cabling, and basic cuff-down sock construction techniques. It will go a lot faster if you know how to work cables without a cable needle - I have not included a tutorial for this in the pattern since there are a number of good ones, such as this one, already available. The colourwork and cable patterns are currently provided only in charted form.
You’ll want to have 100 g of your main colour available as well as 20-25 g of your contrast colour.
Four sizes are included:
Small (56 stitch cuff, to fit approximately 7 inch foot)
Medium (64 stitch cuff, to fit approximately 8 inch foot)
Large (72 stitch cuff, to fit approximately 9 inch foot)
Extra Large (80 stitch cuff, to fit approximately 10 inch foot)
These fit just a bit tighter than a stockinette sock with the same stitch count, since you adjust your gauge for the colourwork portions.
If you’re printing the pattern in black and white, you’ll want to make note of the highlighted columns on the chart.
