If you’re passionate about knitting socks, you’re in for a treat! Our latest sock pattern is designed to suit every sock lover, whether you prefer knitting toe-up or top-down styles. This pattern features a delightful contrasting sock heel that adds flair to your creations and is perfect for customizing your socks based on your mood. With easy-to-follow instructions for both a shortie sock option and the versatility to utilize your sock yarn scraps, you can enjoy unique, colorful designs every time.
This pattern is particularly captivating as it offers two types of heels—one in garter stitch and the other in stockinette stitch—both crafted using German Short Rows in a creative configuration that will keep your knitting experience exciting. With clear guidance included for sizes XS (S, M, L, XL), you can knit to fit individual foot sizes with stitch counts ranging from 56 to 72 stitches, ensuring a comfortable fit for everyone.
For materials, you will need 50g of superwash sock yarn, paired with a 20g mini-skein for the cuffs, heels, and toes. The sample featured showcases Plymouth Happy Feet 100 Splash in the beautiful Tuscan Spice colorway (90% superwash merino wool, 10% nylon, 100g, 384 yds/351 m). To add an extra touch, use a teal mystery scrappy skein (20g) for those colorful accents!
Don't forget your US 2 (2.75mm) double-pointed needles or a long circular needle if you prefer the magic loop technique—whichever size you need for achieving the correct gauge. While the pattern is designed with magic loop in mind, you can easily adapt it for your preferred knitting method.
