Rose Quartz Shorties

Rose Quartz Shorties are the perfect quick-to-knit ankle-length sneaker socks that you can create using less than a skein of fingering-weight sock yarn. Inspired by the sharp angles and jagged edges of the beautiful unhewn gemstone for which they are named, these unique socks bring a touch of whimsy and elegance to your summer wardrobe.

These stunning Rose Quartz Shorties are designed to be worked from the toe up, showcasing a delicate and airy lace pattern that truly shines in sunny weather. Featuring a reinforced heel flap, these socks offer exceptional durability and cushioned comfort, whether you're wearing them with your favorite sneakers or lounging at home. To enhance their functionality, an optional short-row heel tab can be added at the back of the leg, preventing any slippage and keeping your socks securely in place as you go about your day. Finished off with a stylish short twisted-rib cuff, these socks boast a polished and refined look that elevates any outfit.

This versatile pattern is available in three sizes (58, 66, and 74 stitches) with adjustable foot lengths, making it suitable for a wide range of foot sizes. Both right and left socks are identical, allowing you the convenience of working two at a time, which saves you time and ensures consistency. You'll find that the pattern is user-friendly, with written and charted instructions provided in both metric and US terminology.

Don't forget about the gauge: 32 stitches × 46 rounds, which is essential for achieving the perfect fit. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting your knitting journey, the Rose Quartz Shorties pattern is an ideal project for building your skills while creating a beautiful, functional accessory for those warm summer days.
