Slip-stitch patterns, like the Linen Stitch used here, showcase the
color changes of hand-painted yarns beautifully. As you slip every
other stitch, the lines of color are interrupted, and each stitch
stands out in a single color.
Linen Stitch is really half woven and half knit, so have fun while you
"Rock and Weave" the sideways cuffs of these socks. The picot-edge
bind-off adds a flirty detail at the outside ankle.
