Beekeeper Socks: Knitting Pattern PDF

Cool weather, unisex sock knitting pattern. Not exactly a honeycomb, the stitch pattern used to create the dimensional texture of these socks is a petite cousin. The socks are worked from the toe up with a German short row toe and heel.

This pattern is written in needle neutral terms and can be worked on dpns or with the magic loop method on long circular needles.
