Sock *Saxa*

The sock *Saxa* requires two different solid-coloured sockyarns. Lines of slipped stitches in the Matrix style - an easy-to-knit slip stitch cable technique - spiral around the socks, which are worked as mirror images of each other. Only the sole is worked in stockinette stitch.
Even though the pattern looks impressive, it is rather easy to knit: In each round, only one colour is used. The colour changes after each round. The cables/twists consist of two stitches only and can be easily worked without a cable needle.
Instructions for heel and toe are not included; these are worked according to your preference.
The pattern is charted.
