Luna socks
These vibrant, eye-catching socks feature a delightful combination of stockinette stitch and a simple stranded colorwork pattern, designed to bring a cheerful pop of bright color to your ensemble. Crafted from the cuff down, this pattern includes a traditional heel flap, which can be easily substituted with your preferred sock knitting method. To finish off the toes, a bit of kitchener stitch is utilized for a seamless look. This versatile pattern is needle-neutral, making it suitable for both double-pointed needles (DPNs) and circular knitting needles, catering to your personal knitting style.
Sizes: Available in XS (S, M, L), these socks are perfect for a wide range of foot sizes.
Ankle and Foot Circumference: Each size offers a comfortable fit with measurements of 6 ¾ (7 ¾, 8 ¾, 9 ¾) inches / 17.5 (20, 22.5, 25) cm. The foot length can be easily adjusted, allowing for a personalized fit for everyone.
Yarn Requirements: This pattern calls for fingering weight yarn in two contrasting colors, making it a great canvas for your creativity. Opt for solid or tonal yarns to create striking contrasts, or consider using a gradient yarn for your contrasting color (CC) for stunning visual effects. Ensure that all shades in the gradient contrast well with the main color (MC) for the best results.
