Rills socks
Introducing the Rills Socks—a delightful knitting pattern inspired by the graceful way water carves its path through sand and soil. This custom-designed ribbing pattern not only adds visual interest but also features a fun stitch maneuver that is sure to enhance your knitting skills (rest assured, it’s not cables!). Rills Socks are crafted using a toe-up construction, showcasing a unique sideways wedge toe and a Fleegle heel that offers both comfort and fit. With the option of a patterned sole for those cozy nights in (or showcasing your craftsmanship) or a plain sole perfect for boot socks, these socks are versatile for any occasion.
Sizes and Fit: The Rills Socks pattern incorporates negative ease, allowing for a snug yet comfortable fit. Foot lengths are easily adjustable to cater to your needs. Important Note: The small (S) size is achievable only with an alternate gauge of 20 stitches rather than the standard 16 to 10 cm/4 inches. For the best results, you may consider using slightly lighter yarn, such as a worsted weight, to ensure the perfect fit.
To fit foot sizes: S: 17.5-20 cm/7-8 inches circumference and 23 cm/9 inches in length (achieved by using the alternative gauge and/or lighter yarn). M/L: 20.5-25 cm/8-9 inches circumference, with a foot length of 23.5-26.5 cm/9.5-10.5 inches. The pattern is shown in aran yarn on a foot measuring 21.5 cm in circumference and 23.5 cm long, fitting the M/L size perfectly.
