Sunday Reel
Just your basic ribbed sock - except not.
Introducing the Sunday Reel Sock Pattern, a delightful and unique toe-up sock design that combines classic ribbing with a fun and innovative gusset pattern. Perfect for knitters of all levels, this pattern is primarily worked in neat ribbing, making it easy to follow while offering an interesting twist that will keep your knitting experience engaging. The instructions are specifically written for the magic loop technique on a long circular needle, but fear not! You can easily adapt the pattern to work with double-pointed needles (dpns) if you prefer.
Size
This pattern is designed for a medium size, with 64 stitches, fitting a foot circumference of approximately 8.5’’ / 22 cm. Perfect for gifting or adding to your own sock collection!
Yarn
For this project, we recommend using Wonderland Yarns Mary Ann, a luxurious blend of 85% merino and 15% nylon with a yardage of 434 m/113 g. This light fingering weight yarn is ideal for creating comfortable and breathable socks. The sample sock is shown in the beautiful colorway Clotted Cream, but feel free to choose any color that inspires you! Note that you will need 1 skein to complete a pair of socks. Keep in mind that the exact yardage required may vary depending on the length of your foot and leg.
Needles
You'll need US 1 (2.25 mm) circular needles or dpns for this project. It’s essential to adjust your needle size if necessary to achieve the correct gauge, ensuring a perfect fit for your socks.
Gauge
The gauge to achieve for this pattern is 16 stitches x 22 rounds = 2x2’’/5x5 cm in stockinette stitch after blocking. Getting the right gauge is crucial for a comfortable fit, so take the time to check before you dive in!
Other Supplies
In addition to yarn and needles, gather a stitch marker, cable needle, and tapestry needle. These tools will aid in completing your project and ensuring a polished finish.
