Solidarity Socks

Special May 2022 Promotion: 100% of Net Proceeds Donated to World Central Kitchen

Show your solidarity with the Ukrainian people by knitting these vibrant striped socks inspired by the colors of the Ukrainian flag. This toe-up sock pattern features a beautifully designed gusset and a slip-stitch heel flap, combining both style and comfort. With the Ukrainian Coat of Arms proudly displayed at the toe and a cheerful sunflower border encircling the top of the sock, you can wear these socks with pride while making a meaningful contribution.

The socks are worked in the round, starting from the toe and continuing all the way up to the cuff. This thoughtfully crafted pattern includes comprehensive written instructions for the colorwork, as well as detailed charts to guide you through each step. The stranded colorwork sections are knit with a larger needle than those used for the toe and cuff, providing enhanced stretch and comfort. You'll also find valuable tips and tricks to help prevent the colorwork from being overly tight, ensuring your knitting remains enjoyable and manageable. Plus, learn how to eliminate pesky ‘jogs’ in the stripe sections for a flawless finish.

This unique knitting project is perfect for intermediate knitters looking to expand their skills while creating a heartfelt tribute. Experience the satisfaction of crafting a pair of well-fitting socks that feature a thoughtfully designed gusset and an innovative slip-stitch heel flap, which means you won’t need to pick up stitches—a huge time-saver! Dive into this project and make a statement with every stitch, while also supporting a noble cause.

Don’t miss your chance to create something beautiful that also has a positive impact on the world. Grab your knitting needles and yarn in the colors of the Ukrainian flag, and join us in supporting World Central Kitchen through your craft!
