Tidal Socks
• These delightful socks are expertly knitted in the round on a long circular needle, utilizing the popular Magic Loop technique, allowing for seamless knitting from the toe right up to the cuff. • The foot section features the exquisite Tidal pattern on the instep, providing a beautiful texture, while the sole is worked in plain stocking stitch for comfort and durability. • For the heel, we've employed a toe-up gusset and heel flap method that is both functional and innovative. • The heel turn is constructed using German Short Rows, a technique known for its ease and effectiveness, which prevents the creation of holes often found in other methods. • As you continue up the leg section, you will maintain the Tidal pattern all around, creating a cohesive and stylish look. • Throughout the instructions, we make references to the front needle and back needle (of the circular needle), clearly indicating that all active stitches will be worked on the front needle for straightforward handling.
Whether you're a knitting novice or a seasoned yarn artist, this pattern combines elegance with practical techniques, making it an ideal choice for your next project. Perfect for knitting enthusiasts looking to enhance their skills while crafting a stunning pair of socks, the Tidal Toe-Up Socks pattern is sure to become a cherished addition to your knitting repertoire.
