Strange Magic

Halloween has always been my favorite holiday, and it's hard to forget those chilly evenings in Edmonton where we often faced blizzards on or just before Halloween. To keep warm, my mom lovingly crafted whimsical costumes for my brother and me that were two sizes too big, allowing us to layer our snowsuits underneath. On particularly frigid Halloweens, with temperatures dipping to an astonishing -25°C, my mom would drive alongside us, ensuring we had a cozy spot to warm up between trick-or-treating adventures. These fond memories inspire the spirit of creativity and warmth in my knitting projects.

Introducing the "Worked in the Round" knitting pattern, titled "Strange Magic." This versatile sock pattern includes both cuff-down and toe-up directions, along with a detailed chart for the beautiful pattern stitch. Ideal for knitters of varying skill levels, this design features instructions for an afterthought heel, giving you the freedom to substitute any heel technique that suits your knitting style.

The pattern is specifically crafted for the magic loop method of knitting socks, making it perfect for those who enjoy this technique. However, if you prefer a different approach, you can easily adapt this design for double-pointed needles or mini-circulars, allowing for flexible knitting options.

Embrace the joy of knitting and create your own pair of stylish socks with the "Strange Magic" pattern. Whether you're preparing for a cozy Halloween or simply love to knit unique and functional accessories, this pattern offers a delightful and warm addition to your wardrobe.
