You may have seen the Cabled Bobby Socks that Cynthia knit using two balls of Drops Alpaca in a light shade of pink. The pattern for the socks came from a very old Beehive pattern (pictured left). It was designed for 12-14 year olds, but we knit it without changes using fingering weight yarn and they turned out beautifully for an adult ladies foot. There are two patterns here - (A) is a fancy rib bobby sock and (B) is the cabled bobby sock.

Marcene found this pattern on the internet and thought she'd give it a try... while a bit confusing at first, she soon fell in love with the pattern and the way it highlighted the colours of handcrafted, kettle dyed pure wool from Manos del Uruguay.
