Mondawmin

Mondawmin is a vibrant neighborhood in Baltimore City, home to the renowned Neighborhood Fiber Co., where the inspiration for this beautiful sock pattern originated. Named after this lively locale, the Mondawmin colorway features stunning hues that will bring your knitting creations to life. This charming sock pattern is designed with a delicate, lacy, and feminine style, making it the perfect accessory for early Spring and late Autumn days when handknit socks are a must-have.

With a variety of sizes available — S (M, L) — these socks will fit snugly around 7” (8”, 9”) unstretched, ensuring comfort for every foot. They are beautifully crafted using Neighborhood Fiber Co. Studio Sock yarn, which is composed of 100% superwash Merino wool, providing exceptional softness and warmth. Each skein contains 400 yards and weighs 4oz, with the sample being expertly knit in the stunning Mondawmin colorway.

For this knitting project, you'll need a set of 5 double-pointed needles or two circular needles in size 1 US (2.5 mm), or whichever size you prefer to achieve the desired gauge. To ensure your socks turn out perfectly, aim for a gauge of 8 stitches per inch in stockinette when knitting in the round. These socks not only offer a cozy fit but also showcase your knitting skills with their intricate design.

Whether you're an experienced knitter looking for your next project or a beginner eager to learn, this Mondawmin sock pattern is a delightful addition to your collection. Get ready to knit a pair that will keep your feet warm and stylish during those crisp Spring and Autumn days!
