Domovina sock pattern is now available.

It's a lovely, grey afternoon that practically begs one to sit down and start a new pair of classic, autumnal socks. Well, have I got a sock pattern for you, just in time for the change in season (c'mon, Fall!)
Domovina (Ravelry link) is up, out and ready for you to make your own pair. Just wander on over to the sidebar for the relevant Ravelry and Etsy links.Here are some other important things you might like to know about Domovina:

Folky peasant sampler-socks featuring a variety of techniques in palatable amounts (perfect for those new to colourwork and/or cables.) Go on and learn something new! An ideal blend of the rustic and dressy, these are the perfect socks for Fall!

Size: Women’s Medium (or any foot/leg that is 8” in circumference.)

Gauge: 9 stitches = 1 inch (2.5 cm) in Stockinette st.

Yarn: To make socks as shown, 2 skeins of Patons Kroy Socks 4 ply (192yd / 50 g) in Mercury (Main Colour – MC) and less than half of 1 skein of Handmaiden Fine Yarn Casbah Sock (355 yd / 115 g) in Blackberry (Contrast Colour – CC), or any other comparable fingering weight yarns that compliment each other.

Needles: One set of five (5) double pointed needles in US 1 (2.25 mm) or size necessary to obtain gauge.

Notions: A stitch marker to mark beginning of round (optional,) a cable needle (also optional,) and a sewing needle to weave in ends.

Skills Needed: Knitting in the round, twisted stitches, chart reading, colourwork, cabling and grafting.

Enjoy the new pattern...Willistead (Ravelry link) is going to be the next pattern out!

That is such a gorgeous sock. If I weren't totally off socks I'd be seriously tempted. (I haven't even thought about knitting a sock in 2.5 months. I think there's something wrong with me)

I love the pattern & it will be a great experience to knit it with all the different stitch patterns. Will it be possible to knit it toe-up?
