Irregularity
Discover our beautifully crafted textured sock pattern, featuring a squishy garter stitch heel that not only adds comfort but also showcases a unique design. This pattern incorporates irregular bands of purl stitches that effectively break up the smooth columns of stocking stitch, creating visual interest and texture in your hand-knit socks.
The distinctive stitch pattern is ideal for variegated yarns, as the combination of purl stitches and the garter stitch heel helps to ‘mix’ the colors beautifully, resulting in a stunning finished product. You’ll love how the colors blend seamlessly, highlighting the intricacies of your chosen yarn.
This sock pattern is designed to offer versatility, available in both toe-up and top-down versions. You’ll receive full written instructions along with optional charts for the textured stitch pattern, ensuring clarity whether you prefer detailed narrative or visual guides while knitting. Each version comes in separate files, and both are included in your pattern purchase for added convenience.
