About The Design: The honeycomb stitch is a classic aran pattern. It is easy to work in a single color, and only slightly more difficult to work in 2 colors. Using 2 colors really shows off the recesses of the honeycomb, so I had to knit the 2 versions, as shown above! This pattern will suit the unsure, as well as the adventurous, aran knitter. The heel flap patterning continues through the heel turning, for cushioned comfort, as well as design balance. Both samples are knit in Halcyon Botanica, an all wool, worsted spun, worsted wt. yarn. This yarn has a lovely sheen, is VERY strong, and makes great cables!
