I’ve got two patterns in the new issue of Simply Knitting, so I’ll start with these cabled socks, which appear in the free supplement.
Knitted in Rowan Fine Art, I played around with cable slip stitch patterns to show of the variegation of the yarn.

The pattern is easy to learn as the repeat is only 4 rows, which make these socks a great tv knitting project. They are worked top down on 2mm needles, the ribbing designed to flow nicely into the pattern.

This yarn is scrummy to work with – 45% wool, 20% mohair, 10% silk and 25% polyamide, making these socks really soft and cosy! I love how each of the slipped stitches shows up as a different colour.
Simply Knitting issue 115 (January 14) is available for £4.99 on the 6th Dec (in all good newsagents!) You can also purchase online it at Zinio.
The mittens in the top right corner of the mag are also my design – I’ll be posting about them tomorrow!
Hi,
I hope you can help me. I just purchased an electronic version of the January issue of Simply Knitting for the pattern for the above socks. I have tried everything but cannot get a copy of the supplement. Can you help me? Thanks!
Hi Cheryl
We have just checked and the digital editions definitely had the supplement – if you scroll all the way through to the very end (past the back page) you should find it there.
Thanks
Faye
Where can I find the download of the “slip stitch Cabled socks pattern” seen in Simply Knitting 115. I would really like to make several pairs !
Thank you.
