Ruke socks

Introducing the Ruke socks, a delightful knitting project for those seeking cozy, medium-length knits that are worked from the top down. These socks feature a beautiful Rib stitch pattern that adorns both the sock leg and the top of the feet, extending all the way to the toe for a snug fit. The sock leg is conveniently worked straight until it reaches the heel, allowing you to customize the length of the socks to your personal preference—whether you desire shorter or longer socks, the choice is yours! The foot and toe are knitted in simple knit stitches, while the heel showcases a decorative double stitch pattern that adds an elegant touch. Crafted from pure wool, these Ruke socks are designed with warmth in mind. Although they have a slight itchiness that may be felt initially, this is actually beneficial as it stimulates blood flow, effectively warming those chilly feet. For knitters with sensitive skin or those who often feel cold, I highly recommend these socks as an ideal solution to keep your feet snug and comfortable during the colder months.
