This pattern includes both clear charts and comprehensive written instructions for the intricate stitch pattern, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels.
Sizes: The Villers socks are available in multiple sizes to accommodate foot circumferences of 17 cm (6.75”) and 21 cm (8.25”). The cuff length is designed to be a cozy 15 cm (6”), while the foot length is fully adjustable, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone.
Yarn: For this project, we recommend using Lana Grossa Meilenweit Cashmere, a luxurious blend of 70% Wool, 25% Polyamide, and 5% Cashmere. Each 50 g skein provides an impressive 210 m (230 yds) of softness. For the given sizes, you will need approximately 66 g (277 m / 303 yds) for the smaller size, or 76 g (320 m / 350 yds) for the larger size, all in the stunning color 35 Silver Grey.
Techniques Used: This sock pattern incorporates a variety of essential knitting techniques, including a tubular cast on using the provisional crochet cast-on method. If you prefer, you may replace it with the Italian tubular cast on for a different finish. You'll also practice knitting, purling, twisted stitches, decreases, increases, wrapped knots, and picking up stitches, culminating in the finishing technique of grafting.
Whether you're an experienced knitter or just getting started, the Villers socks offer an engaging and rewarding project that results in warm, stylish socks perfect for any occasion. Start your knitting journey today with this detailed and user-friendly pattern!
