Chunky Slipper Socks 4 styles
Welcome to my exclusive knitting pattern for cozy slipper socks or warm bed socks, perfect for keeping your feet snug during chilly nights. This delightful pattern is designed for easy knitting using chunky or bulky yarn, worked double throughout, ensuring your socks knit up quickly and provide exceptional warmth. For this project, you'll need 8mm needles (US size 11), ideal for achieving that perfect bulky texture.
These slipper socks are crafted on two straight needles, making them accessible for knitters of all skill levels. The pattern features four unique variations: three include a simple yet elegant cable pattern running up the front, while the fourth option is designed entirely in garter stitch, providing a fantastic beginner-friendly choice. Adding buttons and pom poms enhances the fun and creativity of your finished project, giving each sock its own personality.
This pattern offers instructions for two different sizes: Ladies Medium (UK size 4 to 6, EU 37-39.5, US 6-8) and Ladies Large (UK size 6 to 8, EU 39.5-42, US 8-10.5), ensuring a comfortable fit for all wearers. I recommend King Cole Value Chunky wool for this project, but feel free to use any chunky yarn that meets the correct tension specifications.
Tension is important for achieving the right fit, so note that it requires 10 stitches and 20 rows to measure 10cm over garter stitch when using wool double on 8mm needles. For your yarn needs, you'll need 2 x 100g balls to complete the three cable styles. If you're opting for the pom pom style, gather 3 x 100g balls, with each ball offering around 152 meters of yarn.
As a special bonus, a LARGE PRINT VERSION OF THE PATTERN IS INCLUDED, making it easier for all crafters to read and follow along. Perfect for cozy nights in, these slipper socks make wonderful gifts for friends and family or a delightful treat for yourself. Dive into this satisfying knitting experience and enjoy the warmth of your handmade creations!
