Spindle by Jennifer Crawford

I love knitting socks, and I adore twisted stitches, so it was only natural I would eventually combine the two. This pattern uses a motif that might look a little bunched and plain on the needles, but opens up into a lovely double diamond pattern when on the foot. The pattern itself is continuous around the leg, with no visible start or end.
