Some socks are great for walking, some socks are great for showing off with a funky pair of shoes, some socks are perfect for nights out, these socks made from lustrous Blacker Yarns Tamar are just the pair for a cozy night in with a good book.

Size
S (M, L)
Finished foot width: 19 (23, 27)cm /7.75 (9, 10.5)in
Choose size close to or slightly larger than your foot circumference. The fabric created is quite stretchy, so a wider than required foot can be taken up by making the sock slightly shorter. Foot length is fully adjustable.

Materials
2 100g skeins Blacker Yarns Tamar (4ply, 100% pure new wool, a lustre blend of Wensleydale, Teeswater, Cotswold, Black Leicester Longwool and Cornish Mule, 350m/380yds/100g) in Ottery
3mm (US C or D) hook
2 Removable stitch markers
Note: Smaller sizes should be able to squeeze a shorter ankle sock out of just 1 100g skein. Weigh the yarn as you work the cuff of the first sock to make sure you don’t exceed 50g used if you would like to do this.

21 sts and 16 rows in half treble crochet to 10 cm/4 in using 3mm hook (or size needed to achieve tension)

Difficulty Rating
Intermediate

Skills Needed
