**Knitting Pattern: Cozy Ribbed Socks by Designer Julia Schwartz**

Get ready to embrace warmth and style with the Cozy Ribbed Socks, designed by the talented Julia Schwartz. This delightful knitting pattern is perfect for knitters looking for a fun and engaging project using Kroy Sock yarn. You will need **2 skeins** of this fantastic yarn to create cozy socks that fit comfortably and look fabulous.

**Materials Required**:

• **Yarn:** Kroy Sock yarn (2 skeins needed)
• **Needles:** 2.75 mm (US 2) 40-inch circular needles, or a long enough pair for the magic loop technique
• **Notions:** Yarn needle for Kitchener stitch and weaving in your ends

**Gauge:** 28 stitches and 28 rows equals 4 inches (10 cm) — a crucial factor for ensuring a perfect fit!

**Sizes Available:** This pattern is versatile, offering three sizes to fit everyone: Small (7 inches circumference for children), Medium (8 inches for women), and Large (9 inches for men).

**Stitches Used:** The pattern utilizes a variety of stitches, including knit (K), purl (p), Right Twist (RT), Left Twist (LT), slip (sl), knit two together (k2tog), k2tog through the back loop (k2togb), purl two together (P2tog), and the classic Kitchener stitch.

**Special Stitches Explained:**

• **Right Twist (RT):** This technique involves knitting two stitches together while keeping them on the left needle, then knitting into the first stitch again. Finally, pull both stitches off the left needle onto the right needle — voila, you have completed the RT!
• **Left Twist (LT):** For the LT, knit through the back loop of the second stitch while keeping it on the left needle, then knit into the first stitch and pull both stitches onto the right needle. This adds a lovely texture to your socks!

**Important Note:** Each of the Right Twist (RT) and Left Twist (LT) stitches counts as 2 stitches in your overall stitch count.

Crafted for cozy comfort and featuring ribbed styling, these socks are not only functional but are a perfect showcase of your knitting skills. Whether you're knitting for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, this pattern is a must-try! Don't miss out on the chance to create your very own hand-knit socks that are sure to keep your toes warm during chilly days.
