Shoe Candy
Congratulations to BinaBKnits - the winner of the Lollipop Yarn in the Carol the Bells colorway on the Tradition base!
Are you ready to indulge in a delightful knitting experience? Introducing Shoe Candy, the perfect pattern that allows you to beautify your footwear without adding any extra calories! Featuring the charming Eye Candy Eyelet stitch, this design showcases splashes of vibrant color that are sure to make your socks an eye-catching accessory.
Shoe Candy includes detailed instructions for four sizes, making it a versatile choice for knitters of all skill levels. The pattern is knitted top down from the cuff to the toe, ensuring a comfortable fit and a smooth knitting process. For added flair, you can choose to incorporate a scalloped rib and a fitted arch, allowing you to customize your socks to your heart's content. To make the learning process even easier, this pattern comes with both a comprehensive picture tutorial and a video tutorial that visually guides you through the Eye Candy Eyelet stitch.
As you work through the pattern, be mindful of the stitch decreases involved in the Eye Candy Eyelet design—many stitches are decreased over just two rows. To achieve the best results, we recommend starting with a larger needle size for the cuff and then transitioning to smaller needles when you begin the heel flap. This technique not only enhances the sock’s fit but also showcases the beauty of the Eye Candy Eyelet stitch. Remember to try your socks on during the knitting process to ensure a perfect fit for your feet.
Prefer a simpler approach? If you would like to use just one needle size throughout the project, you can absolutely knit the entire pattern using a single size. Regardless of your technique or preferences, Shoe Candy is designed to bring a touch of sweetness and elegance to your knitted collection. Get started today and treat yourself or a loved one to this delightful sock pattern!
