These were a Christmas gift for my roommate and I love how they turned out!

The linen ridge stitch looks really cool but you have to make sure you’re knitting very tightly or the effect won’t be right.

I’m also a huge fan of the sideways braid but it takes absolutely forever to knit one row of it.

One alteration I made was to ktbl the knit stitches in the ribbing of the cuff.
