Moriarty Socks

The exquisite yarn colorway used in the sample, In a World of Locked Rooms, the Man with the Key is King, draws inspiration from the cunning character Moriarty, the notorious nemesis of Sherlock Holmes. This intriguing knitting pattern fully embraces the essence of Moriarty, featuring a striking dropped stitch design that runs down the front of the leg and top of the foot, beautifully complemented by simple ribbing along the back of the leg and the upper section of the short row heel.

This unique stitch pattern, combined with the flexible ribbing, creates wonderfully stretchy socks that hug your feet comfortably. When crafting these socks, you may discover that you need to opt for a smaller circumference size than what you typically use; therefore, letting your gauge swatch guide you is highly advisable for the best fit.

We provide detailed written instructions, and the reversible stitch pattern offers versatility for those who enjoy knitting socks toe-up. Comprehensive instructions are included for a range of widths, from narrow to extra wide, ensuring a perfect fit for every foot. Additionally, the foot length is fully customizable, offering you the freedom to create socks that are uniquely your own.
