Winter Garden Socks

**About the Design:** Immerse yourself in the art of knitting with these beautifully crafted Bohus-inspired socks. Utilizing two exquisite Cascade Yarns—Cascade 220 and Cloud 9, a luxurious blend of angora and wool—this pattern brings elegance and comfort to your sock collection. The challenging 3-color leg pattern is a stunning visual reward, while the easy Stockinette stitch for the feet ensures a smooth and enjoyable knitting experience. Our pattern encompasses three women’s sizes, making it a versatile addition to your knitting repertoire.

Gauge: Achieving the perfect fit starts with proper gauge: 6 sts and 8.25 rows = 1” (2.5 cm) in Stockinette with size 4 needles; 6.25 sts and 6 rows = 1” over the colorwork pattern with size 5 needles; 6 sts and 5.75 rows = 1” over colorwork with size 6 needles; and 5.75 sts and 5.5 rows = 1” over colorwork with size 7 needles, or use the size that gives you the correct gauge. To create the best results, always take a moment to check your gauge.

Note: The unique design of this pattern features a wide color pattern repetition, affecting stitch counts in the feet to provide different sizes. However, the leg maintains a consistent stitch count, requiring various needle sizes to adjust for size differences.

In our sampling, the navy pair (size L) is crafted entirely from the Cloud 9 yarn, while the natural pair (size M) incorporates Cascade 220 as an accent color, demonstrating the beautiful effects of yarn combination in your projects.
