Knitting pattern: Kaarna Socks (by Hannemari Lehtonen)

The textured pattern on the socks mimics the tree bark. The pattern is formed by working cables and twisted stitches. The socks are worked from the cuff down to the toes.

The pattern for the Kaarna socks was previously published in Beloved Patterns & Pentik knitting magazine, where the inspiration came from Pentik's decorative textiles and ceramics.
