Shetland Fir Cone Socks

Discover the Art of Knitting with Our Detailed Sock Pattern:
This exquisite sock design is perfect for knitters looking to create beautiful footwear. The pattern features a stunning Shetland Fir Cone Lace design on the leg and cuff, adding an elegant touch to your hand-knit socks. Knit from the cuff down in the round, this pattern allows for seamless construction and a comfortable fit. With three sizes available, you can customize your socks to fit perfectly. Choose from Small, Medium, or Large sizes, measuring 8, 9, or 10 inches (20.5, 23, or 25 cm), ensuring a great fit for anyone.

The detailed instructions include a charted pattern for the lace, making it easy to follow along and create a stunning result. The design also features a classic wedge toe and a traditional flap heel, giving your socks both style and structure. Knitting enthusiasts will appreciate the challenge and satisfaction of completing this intricate pattern.

For those who prefer a cozier option, I have successfully knit these socks with heavier weight sock yarn at a gauge of 8 stitches and 11 rows per inch (over stockinette stitch). Simply use 2.75 mm needles for the leg and 2.5 mm for the foot for optimal results. This versatile pattern allows you to experiment with different yarn weights while still achieving a beautiful finish.

Whether you're an experienced knitter or a passionate beginner, this lace sock pattern is an excellent addition to your knitting repertoire. Start your knitting journey today and enjoy the process of crafting your own beautiful socks!
