Twirling twist socks - One foot

Twirling Twist Socks - Toe and foot Twirling Twist Socks - Toe and foot

This is how far I've got in knitting the socks that woke me up. I'm just about ready to start knitting the heel flap. After that, the cable that features prominently on the foot here will split into two branches, each of which will twirl in opposite directions.

The cables will continue twisting in the same way as the cable on the foot, but will gradually make their way to the back of the sock, cross each other, then come back to the front of the sock again.

And again, the nice thing about this design is that, when it comes time to write down the pattern (which I seem to do after one sock, then follow it for the second) it's actually relatively easy to explain. Or, rather, it'll be easy to write down the exact stitches to make to end up with the same result.
