Blue Steel Socks
Introducing our "Blue Steel" Knit Sock Pattern, inspired by the iconic "model" look Ben Stiller showcases in the hilarious movie Zoolander. My husband loves to amuse me by turning and flashing his "blue steel" expression, and when I discovered that Leading Men had a striking colorway named Blue Steel, I knew I had to create these unique socks for him!
These socks feature a beautifully intricate design, combining narrow ribs woven with braided cables that transition into wider ribs on the leg. This eye-catching pattern then gracefully twists back to narrow ribs on the instep, making for a visually stunning and comfortable fit.
The "Blue Steel" Knit Sock Pattern was specially designed for the December 2020 Sock Knitters Anonymous Cables Challenge, ensuring it has the perfect balance of creativity and technical skill. These socks are suitable for both men and women, making them a versatile addition to any wardrobe. The pattern is charted for four different sizes—S, M, L, and XL—allowing you to knit a pair of socks for nearly anyone on your gift list.
With an approximate yardage requirement of 360 (380, 400, 420) yards, this pattern provides a detailed guide to make the most of your favorite yarn. Plus, rest assured that this pattern has been professionally tech edited for clarity and accuracy.
Whether you're looking to create a cozy gift for your husband or simply want to treat yourself to a fun and engaging knitting project, the "Blue Steel" Knit Sock Pattern is perfect for all skill levels.
