Black Flame Candle

“On All Hallows’ Eve, when the moon is around, a virgin will summon thee from under the ground.” Get ready for a spooky season with our enchanting Flame Sock knitting pattern! Strategically slipped stitches create mesmerizing undulating flames that elegantly lick their way up the instep of this sock, making it the perfect project for a cozy autumn evening. These socks not only celebrate the spirit of Halloween but also showcase your crafting skills.

This versatile sock is knitted from the toe up, featuring a comfortable short-row heel with an optional mini-gusset for added fit. The flame-like pattern, achieved through slip stitch techniques, ebbs and flows gracefully, adding texture and visual interest to your work. Best of all, this technique doesn’t require extra ease, allowing you to confidently choose your typical sock size and stitch count for a perfect fit.

To achieve the best results, we recommend using solid or tonal yarns, as the contrasting colors between the main color (MC) and contrasting color (CC) are essential for highlighting the striking design. Be sure to select colors with strong contrast, avoiding overlapping shades to allow your flames to fully ignite! Whether you're an experienced knitter or a beginner looking to enhance your skills, this Halloween-themed sock pattern is an exciting way to add some festive flair to your knitting repertoire.
