This pattern was designed in collaboration with Sewrella Yarn as part of their Winter Lookbook.

 

DK weight yarn and cozy cables make the Matterhorn Socks extra warm and snuggly for cold winter days. The repetitive cable motif can be worked with or without a cable needle making this a simple and intuitive knit. I imagine wearing the Matterhorn Socks on a chilly winter day, curled up with a book, a knitting project, or a warm cup of tea.
