Legolas Sock

This beautiful sock pattern is inspired by Legolas Greenleaf, the legendary sylvan elf from J.R.R. Tolkien’s beloved journey, The Fellowship of the Ring. As a remarkable member of the Fellowship that departed from Rivendell, Legolas embodies grace and strength, qualities that are beautifully reflected in this intricate sock design.

The pattern has undergone extensive testing and has been meticulously proofread by a dedicated group of testers, to whom I am immensely grateful. Thank you all for your invaluable contributions! However, my own editing has resulted in a couple of minor inconsistencies in the pattern. Here are some important corrections to note:
- For the large size, while working the heel flap, please remember to complete 8 pattern repeats instead of 10 to ensure that the stitch count remains accurate.
- Additionally, the Large Left Top of Foot Chart and the Small Left Top of Foot Chart have been mislabeled; they should be switched to avoid any confusion during your crafting process.

Skill Level: Intermediate. This pattern assumes that the knitter has a basic understanding of top-down sock construction, including cabling techniques, decreases, yarn overs, lace patterns, and the important skill of chart reading, which is essential for successfully completing this project.
Materials: To knit these enchanting socks, you will need 1 set of US1.5 double-pointed needles (DPNs) or any size necessary to achieve the desired gauge. Some of my testers successfully utilized the Magic Loop method along with stitch markers, so feel free to choose the method that suits you best! Additionally, you will require a cable needle or the ability to cable without one to enhance this pattern’s intricate design.

Embrace the challenge and joy of knitting with this enchanting sock pattern, perfect for showcasing your skills and passion for crafting. Whether you're an experienced knitter or on your way to mastering your craft, this pattern is sure to inspire awe and admiration.
