Meadow socks
Discover the cozy warmth and stylish design of the Meadow socks, an exquisite addition to your knitting repertoire. These socks are crafted in the round, starting seamlessly from the cuff and elegantly tapering to the toe. This versatile pattern not only includes a detailed written description but also features easy-to-follow charts for visual guidance, making it suitable for knitters of all skill levels.
Gauge: Achieve a precise gauge of 30 stitches and 40 rows = 4” (10 cm) in stockinette stitch when worked in the round, after blocking. This ensures your socks fit perfectly and maintain their shape.
Yarn: For the Meadow socks, we recommend using Lana Grossa yarn, which boasts 100 grams per 420 meters, composed of 80% wool and 20% polyamide. Feel free to experiment with any quality fingering weight yarn that you prefer to add your personal touch to the project.
Notions: To craft your Meadow socks, gather your supplies, including circular needles or double-pointed needles (DPN) in US size 1.5 (2.50 mm), scissors, stitch markers, and a tapestry needle for finishing. Having the right tools will enhance your knitting experience.
Techniques Used: This pattern employs essential knitting techniques such as the long-tail cast on, working both flat and in the round, knitting and purling, as well as increasing and decreasing. The Kitchener stitch is used to finish the toes, creating a smooth, invisible seam that adds a professional finish to your socks.
