This sock pattern was written for double pointed needles and has instructions for three sizes:

  • Small (42 sts)
  • Medium (48 sts)
  • Large (54 sts) sizes

This is a DK weight sock pattern and is the fourth of a six part set, which will be called the Coorie Collection.

This is a toe up sock pattern, worked in one piece, from the toe up to the cuff. Casting on requires using a two needle cast on method. The toe of the socks is knitted first, before moving onto the foot, the gusset, the heel, then the leg and finally finishing on the cuff. A stretchy cast off is used to cast off the stitches of the cuff.

Instructions for this sock are in written and charted format.

This toe up sock pattern is based on my recipe for knitting socks using a DK weight yarn. This pair of socks is the fourth of a six part set, which will be called the Coorie Collection.

Coorie is a Scottish word meaning ‘to nestle or snuggle’. Coorie inspires us to appreciate the simple things that we come across in our everyday life. It encourages us to enjoy being outdoors in all kinds of weather and delighting in that cosy feeling that embraces you when you arrive back home.

All the socks in this collection will be named after a flavour of cotton candy and each design will feature a different textured pattern.

I hope that this pattern will help knitters to understand how toe up socks with a traditional heel flap and gusset develop while using DK weight yarn and double pointed needles.
