Winter is such a good time to snuggle up in warm clothes and read a good book!

Many of us who live in cold climates need warm socks in the winter. This pair of bed socks is thick and squishy. It would be perfect for a person with swollen ankles, as they are not tight and would not dig in. They would also work over a thinner pair of socks as house socks or slipper socks. I chose an inexpensive and soft yarn that is easily washed by machine. Any soft, washable wool or wool blend would be lovely as well.

This pattern will make a rather large pair of socks but an experienced sock knitter will easily be able to make them larger or smaller as needed.

The pattern is available here!
