Gather up your favorite colors with Faraway Socks Friends by Andrea Yetman! In this beautiful pattern, the cuff, heel, and toes are knitted using two strands of the same color, while the body features a mix of colors; the outcome is simply flawless and exceptionally soft!

The inspiration for these socks came to me during the COVID-19 quarantine. Online socializing became a way of staying connected at a distance. I met a dear friend within the knitting community and although we are worlds apart I consider her a very close friend. The 2 colors in the pattern represents 2 friends and the cabled panel represents how our friendship has come together. It’s incredible how knitting along with my faraway friend has helped me during these unsettling times. I hope these socks will bring you joy, keep you warm and remind you of a special friend. - Andrea

NOTE

These socks are knit from the top down with 2 strands of fingering weight yarn held together double stranded for a marled effect. The cuff, heel and toe are knit in a solid color holding the same color double stranded. The front panel is a very easy, yet engaging pattern made up of 2 columns of twisted stitches on either side of a basic braided cable. Have fun putting 2 colors of yarn together and even mix it up by changing colors throughout as a stash busting project.
