  |  | Foggy Dawn socks are a great way to show off cabled knitting without all the muss and fuss of actual cables. Each cable cross can be more quickly and easily made by a twist stitch. This is an intermediate level design that is easily re-sizable for a wide range of women's feet. Can be knit with either fingering weight or sport weight yarn, depending on desired thickness of sock. The sock is constructed top down, with a short row heel and grafted toe.
