Motherhood Socks
The stunning Celtic knot, with its myriad variations, is a timeless design that features a series of intricate knots intertwined with no definitive beginning or end. This captivating symbol embodies the bond of motherhood, beautifully represented on the leg of these unique mosaic socks. The distinctive design showcases a heartfelt embrace between a parent and child, where two hearts are gracefully intertwined. This pattern employs mosaic knitting, an engaging colorwork technique that creates the intricate motif by slipping select stitches of the main color (MC) on rows using the contrasting color (CC). To guide you through the knitting process, we provide detailed written round-by-round instructions, along with a helpful charted pattern for visual reference.
PATTERN DIFFICULTY LEVEL: Advanced Intermediate. This project requires a variety of skills, including slip stitch colorwork, unique cabling techniques, picking up stitches, short-row shaping, and both decreases and increases for a polished finish.
**SIZES:** The pattern accommodates three sizes, with stitch counts of 62, 70, and 78 sts. These sizes are designed to fit foot circumferences of 8 (20.25 cm), 9 (22.75 cm), and 10 (25.5 cm) inches, respectively, with a recommended 1”/2.5 cm negative ease for a snug fit.
