The Mice Will Play
When the cat is away, the mice come out to play—especially in your cozy knit socks! Introducing The Mice Will Play: a delightful knitting pattern featuring charming cat paw designs that beautifully swirl around your leg. With intricate lace ribbing adorning the rest of the sock, this pattern also boasts an original textured heel flap, making it both feminine and functional for all sock-loving knitters.
Sizing: Ensure the perfect fit with our comprehensive sock sizing guide! This pattern accommodates varying foot circumferences, measured around the ball of the foot: X-Small (18 cm or 7 in), Small (20 cm or 8 in), Medium (23 cm or 9 in), and Large (25.5 cm or 10 in).
Yarn Requirement: For this project, you will need high-quality sock yarn. Shown here in a stunning 100% Bluefaced Leicester High-Twist yarn, you will require 1 x 110g skein, which provides approximately 385 m (400 yds).
Needles and Notions: This pattern calls for 2.25 mm (US 1) needles, which can be either circular or double-pointed (DPNs). Make sure to choose a needle size that enables you to achieve the recommended gauge. Additionally, you will need a darning needle for weaving in ends and some stitch markers to keep track of your progress.
Gauge: Achieve the perfect fit by maintaining a gauge of 36 stitches and 52 rows per 10 cm (4 in) when measured over stocking stitch worked in the round. Proper gauge is crucial for ensuring your socks are both comfortable and stylish.
Pattern Details: This comprehensive 6-page knitting pattern includes detailed charts for all patterned sections, making it beginner-friendly and easy to follow. Please note that there are currently no written instructions available for the charted sections, so knitters should be comfortable using charts.
