Opus 1701. A conventional sock developed from the artwork pattern, Untitled 1700, and intended to exploit the colours and quality of Wollmeise sock yarn. The leg resembles both a twisted flower stalk and the gleaming hank of yarn, and the picot top edge is reminiscent of the broken-off top of the stalk. Optional beading around the top gives a dewdrop effect. This is a plantlike design, so the spirals are not mirrored. There are two separate, fully-written patterns for knitting cuff-down andtoe-up, and both patterns include options to knit the sock with a small, medium or large number of sts per row. You can further adjust the width of the sock by using one of two needle sizes. That gives a total of 2 styles, 2 sock-knitting methods and 5 width-adjustments. Foot length is infinitely adjustable.
