Over Easy Socks

Introducing our delightful Over Easy Shortie Socks knitting pattern—perfect for knitters seeking a quick and satisfying project! Knit flat on two needles, these cozy short socks are designed to be completed in just a single day: cast on after breakfast and bind off by lunchtime! Each sock is crafted from cuff to toe, allowing for creative color changes and the use of sturdier yarns ideal for high-traffic soles.

Over Easy socks feature an innovative method of short row shaping that creates both a snug toe and a supportive heel. The pattern utilizes slipped stitches and clever joins along the side to provide a seamless, join-as-you-go option that is not only easy to follow but also visually appealing. The unique bifurcated heel incorporates short row gussets that enhance comfort across the instep while offering greater depth at the back of the foot. Plus, these short socks are designed to stay up, ensuring a secure fit for all-day wear!

Our Bifurcated Short Row Heel takes inspiration from commercial sport socks, featuring a distinctive Y-shaped line of short row shaping at the heel. This specialized shaping creates a gusset, resulting in a deeper heel that elevates the back of the sock, offering a more comfortable fit compared to standard short row heels. Additionally, the extra ease across the instep makes this heel an excellent choice for individuals with a high instep, providing unparalleled comfort.

This comprehensive knitting pattern is loaded with detailed written instructions, accompanied by front and back images for visual reference. To make your knitting experience even more enjoyable, we've included an assembly diagram, sizing advice for those gifting their handmade creations, and options for adjustable foot and leg lengths. Plus, you'll find a helpful link to our short row tutorial, ensuring you're well-equipped to master this technique. Dive into the cozy world of Over Easy Shortie Socks and discover a fun and functional project that brings warmth to your feet!
