The One Ring
Introducing our enchanting "One Ring Socks" knitting pattern, inspired by the legendary One Ring from the iconic *Lord of The Rings* books and movies. These uniquely designed socks showcase intricate details that any Middle-earth fan will appreciate. Along the leg of the sock, you'll find the 19 rings that were distributed among the three elven-kings, the seven dwarf-lords, and the nine mortal men, culminating in the magnificent One Ring, which elegantly binds them all and is prominently displayed on the ball of the foot.
These socks feature an innovative construction method. You’ll start by knitting the One Ring band and then pick up stitches for the sock's toe. After crafting the toe, additional stitches are picked up around the band to complete your sock in a toe-up fashion. This technique not only enhances the design but also makes for a fascinating knitting experience!
This detailed pattern is charted for your convenience, and a supplementary file with written-out charts is included, ensuring that knitters of all levels can easily follow along. The gauge for this pattern is 9 stitches per inch and 12 rows per inch in stockinette stitch when worked in the round, providing a snug fit that is both comfortable and stylish.
