Njord DK Socks

Discover the cozy charm of DK yarn and delightful texture with these squishy socks that are perfect for every occasion! Crafted in a deep, dark blue hue called Njord, these socks boast bold motifs that beautifully highlight the intricate stitch pattern, making them a standout accessory in your winter wardrobe.

Don't have DK sock yarn on hand? No worries! You can easily create these lovely socks using fingering weight yarn held double. For optimal results, select a fine fingering yarn that has a yardage between 420 and 465 yards. If this is your first time venturing into the world of DK socks, be sure to check your gauge and choose the appropriate needle size to ensure a perfect fit.

This pattern features my favorite style of sock: a blend of captivating design elements paired with plenty of straightforward knitting that showcases the beautiful yarn. Whether you prefer written instructions or visual aids, both written and charted instructions are included to cater to your knitting style.

The sock pattern is available in three sizes and is knit from the top down, complete with a classic heel flap and traditional gusset for superior comfort and fit. To finish, I’ve added my own twist with a rounded toe for that perfect finish.

If you're knitting the large size, particularly for larger feet (such as Men's or Women's size 9 and larger), consider using a contrasting color for the heels, toes, and cuffs for added flair. Alternatively, you can shorten the leg of the sock to make adjustments as needed.

Get ready to enjoy the process of crafting these stylish and warm DK socks and elevate your knitting skills while treating your feet to the comfort they deserve!
