Not-So-Crazy Socks
Looking for the perfect knitted gift? Look no further than these delightful socks! Knitted socks are not only practical but also a charming addition to any sock drawer. This particular pattern is crafted using just basic knit and purl stitches, making it an ideal project for knitters of all skill levels. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner, this pattern is both fun and non-intimidating. Plus, it's a great take-along project for your knitting group or when you're on the go. These socks are created in the round on double-pointed needles (DPNs), ensuring a seamless and comfy fit.
These socks boast a straightforward design with simple color changes, making them a pleasure to knit. That’s why I’ve affectionately dubbed them the “Not-So-Crazy Socks.” You'll have a blast creating this project and wearing them with pride. They make fantastic gifts for friends and family, or a delightful treat for yourself!
**Size Available**: Circumference: 8 inches (unstretched). Foot length: You decide based on personal preference!
**Gauge**: 32 stitches and 48 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch. Achieving this gauge will ensure that your socks fit perfectly and are cozy to wear.
**Yarn Used**: For this pattern, I recommend Universal Yarns, Saki Bamboo Solids [230 yds/50 g per skein], which is a beautiful fingering weight yarn. You will need two colors: (MC) Steel Grey and (CC) Cotton Candy Pink. These yarn choices not only result in stunning visual appeal but also add a soft, comfortable feel to your finished socks.
