Corrugate

Corrugate Socks by Clare Devine

What Is Being Made

Corrugate is a pair of knitted socks designed by Clare Devine. The name references the verb "to corrugate," meaning to contract or cause to contract into wrinkles or folds, which describes the textured appearance created by the stitch pattern used throughout this intermediate-level sock design.

Craft and Primary Technique

This is a knitting project suitable for intermediate-level knitters. The socks are constructed using traditional knitting methods with pointed needles (also referred to as pointy sticks in the pattern credits). The design demonstrates solid fundamentals in sock construction while incorporating textural elements that add visual interest to the finished garments.

Yarn and Materials

Corrugate is designed to be worked in 4-ply yarn weight, which is a standard choice for sock knitting as it creates a durable, well-fitting garment with good stitch definition. The pattern was developed by Yarn and Pointy Sticks Designs and is available as a downloadable PDF format, making it accessible for knitters who prefer digital patterns.

• Abbreviations section for quick reference during knitting
