Toasty Toes 40 Peg Loom Knit Socks
Keep your feet and toes warm and toasty with this fast and fun sock knitting pattern, specially designed for a 40 peg 3/8" gauge loom (such as CinDWood, KB AIO, or KB Sock Loom 2). The finished size of these cozy socks is 8" in circumference, but they stretch comfortably to fit up to 9" or more, depending on the yarn used. Whether you're crafting for yourself or as a gift, you can easily adjust the length of the sock to accommodate various shoe sizes by following the helpful notes included in the pattern. The entire design is worked in the round from top to bottom, making it an engaging project for knitters of all skill levels.
For the best results, we recommend using Cascade Pacific yarn, a worsted weight (ww) superwash wool/acrylic blend that feels incredibly soft against the skin. If you're crafting for women's shoe sizes 9 or smaller, one ball of Cascade Pacific yarn will suffice to create a complete pair of socks. While we suggest this specific yarn, you can substitute with other options that offer stretch and elasticity. Look for wool, wool blends, or yarns containing lycra, polyurethane, or nylon, which will enhance the fit and comfort of your finished socks.
This comprehensive pattern includes detailed, step-by-step written instructions for every section of the sock, covering everything from the cuff to the heel and toe. It also features a convenient video tutorial that walks you through the heel and toe shaping, ensuring you achieve perfect results. Techniques used in this pattern encompass uwrap knit, purl, wrapping, and tur, making it a great way to hone your knitting skills.
Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just getting started, this sock pattern is both rewarding and practical. Dive into the world of loom knitting and treat your feet to homemade warmth and style with these delightful socks!
