Product Details
I designed these socks for a basic need, to keep my feet warm in these cold Montana winters. They serve that purpose very well. A word of caution, if you have hardwood floors, be careful if you knit with mohair, the socks become extra slippery. If you have kids or grandkids, they will love that aspect, my kids love to ‘skate’ on the floors with hand knit socks.
This is a ribbed sock with a German Short Row Heel. This type of short row heel adds a bit more depth than a typical short row heel, so if you have a higher instep, these socks may fit you better.
The pattern is written for magic loop. Needle 1 will be the top of the foot and front of the leg. Needle 2 will be the bottom of the foot, heel, and back of the leg. You have the option of knitting this sock toe-up (pgs. 3 & 4) or top-down (pgs. 5 & 6), both directions are included in this pattern.
