Puschkinia

**Puschkinia Socks Pattern Description** Experience the beauty of gradient yarn with our stunning Puschkinia socks pattern. These socks start off with a crisp, bold cuff adorned with an enchanting floral motif. As the pattern transitions down to the toe, the vibrant stripe design gracefully merges colors, creating a soft, faded aesthetic reminiscent of your favorite well-loved jeans. The Puschkinia socks are expertly crafted using a single gradient colorway of KnitCircus Thrilling Yarn. Our sample socks are knit in the lovely Pigeon colorway, but don't stop there! This versatile pattern also shines in other gradient combinations like the eye-catching Fashion Week — a delightful hot pink to orange gradient, or the rich tones of Emerald City — a beautiful teal to green blend. KnitCircus offers their Matching Socks gradient yarn in convenient sets of two cakes, perfect for this pattern. To create the stunning fading effect that Puschkinia is known for, you'll need just one set of two 50g gradient cakes. This is vital, as using larger cakes can lead to an overly gradual color shift that may dilute the design’s striking impact. For a bolder approach, feel free to experiment with two different gradient colorways or even utilize two solid colors for a more classic look. **Gauge for the Puschkinia Socks:** Achieve a beautiful, even fabric with a gauge of 34 stitches and 42 rows = 4"/10cm in stockinette stitch and flower pattern, when blocked. Inspiration awaits! The sample shown was knit in KnitCircus Thrilling Yarn, shade Pigeon, but a suitable substitution can enhance your sock-making experience. Dive into your next knitting project with the Puschkinia socks pattern and step out in style with your unique creation! Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned knitter, these socks are sure to bring joy and a splash of color to your wardrobe.
