Gentleman’s Sock in Railway Stitch
Nancy Bush’s pattern for Gentleman’s Sock in Railway Stitch from Knitting Vintage Socks: New Twists on Classic Patterns. Knit with Hazel Knits Artisan Sock yarn in “Chocolatier” colorway on number 1 double points.
I decided not to use contrasting colors for the heel and toes. Didn’t want to waste a single inch of the Chocolatier. The color is rich and subtle striped – a dream to knit. (I have another skein in the stash that I plan to cast on soon.)
Nancy Bush’s patterns are always reliable. Well written and well fitted. I didn’t do the seam or calf decrease. The calf shaping is usually too fiddly for me.
