Opera Socks

Discover the beauty of knitting with this unique stitch pattern, born from a delightful mistake! While perusing my Japanese stitch dictionary, I stumbled upon an intriguing image that inspired me to create a new design. I charted the pattern and proceeded to knit the socks using a band heel. Surprise! Once I finished, I realized my stitch didn’t exactly match the original image. I had accidentally left out part of the chart! However, I absolutely adore how this unintended modification turned out. The elegant yarn overs create a graceful swirl, reminiscent of an opera singer effortlessly practicing their scales.

This stunning sock pattern is designed to fit a US Women's size 8.5. If you prefer a different fit, it's easy to adjust by using larger or smaller needles according to your preference. The flexibility in this design makes it perfect for knitters of all experience levels!

Important Note: If you choose to knit this pattern with the lovely Crystal Palace Yarns Panda Cotton Print, you'll need two skeins, as each skein weighs 50 grams. Regardless of the yarn you select for your project, make sure to prepare at least 100 grams to ensure you have enough to complete your beautiful socks.

Unleash your creativity and enjoy the process as you bring this charming mistake to life in your knitting. You won't just be creating fashionable socks; you'll be making a statement piece that showcases your craftsmanship. Get started today and transform your knitting experience!
