Helen Sock

My friend Helen suggested that the textured motif in one of my hat patterns (Squish Me) would be perfect for the pair of comfy, slouchy socks she was wanting—what could I say except, “You got it, Helen". And so this top-down sock was conceived, with four sizes (XS/S/M/L) to fit just about anyone we know. With a quick and easy knit/purl motif, making them for gifts is a pleasure (and putting oneself on the gift list is not at all unreasonable).

Substituting yarn and/or needles may result in an overall variation in size and elasticity.
