Product Description
Dip stitches create shapes that are reminiscent of the seed heads that we see growing in the fields and hedgerows in the UK. These Seed Head socks incorporate plenty of these dip stitches to create seed heads that sit on either side of a central, cabled stem. The dip stitches have the added advantage of being a lot of fun to knit, and once you have knitted a couple, they get much quicker to work! I have included a photo tutorial for the Seed Head stitch.
The Seed Head socks are knitted from the toe up and I’ve given two options for knitting the heel:
• A gusset and heel flap construction, shaped with short rows, and with a slipped-stitch pattern on the heel flap for reinforcement. The gusset length is affected by your row/round gauge, so a table of gauge-dependent lengths is included to help you achieve the perfect fit.
• A short row heel.
This pattern can be made on DPNs, short circulars or magic loop.
