Rainy Winter Socks
This beautifully designed sock pattern is knitted from the top down and features a seamless toe with an elegant cable pattern. Perfect for any knitting enthusiast, this pattern utilizes Windsor Countryside yarn, which is a luxurious 100% wool 8 ply. You will need approximately three 50g skeins, but feel free to experiment with other wool or acrylic yarns in 6 or 8 ply, totaling around 300 meters.
For this project, you will require a set of 3.5 mm or 4 mm needles, either using 4 double-pointed needles (DPNs) or a circular needle, depending on your comfort and preference. The finished socks will fit a foot length of 23 cm, or 9 inches, making them a cozy addition to your knitting collection or a thoughtful gift for loved ones.
To achieve the best results, it’s important to follow the recommended gauge of 22 stitches x 30 rows, which equals a 10 cm x 10 cm square. This is an excellent project for knitters who enjoy working in the round, as the pattern is designed to be knit seamlessly from top to toe. Whether you are an advanced knitter or someone looking to enhance your skills, this sock pattern is a delightful way to challenge yourself and create something beautiful.
