Originally published in 52 Weeks of Socks / 52 x villasukat from lainemagazine.com/shop.

The pattern is now available for download and has been improved with a total of 8 adult sizes, to fit foot size from EUR 33/US 3 to EUR 47/US 12.5.
As the stitch pattern is extremely stretchy, I decided to include lot of sizes, to give a better fit to everyone.
If you’re in doubt about which size to choose, or if you’re in between size, choose the smaller size.

INSPIRATION
Morning Coffee socks are inspired by the chilly mornings, the ones where the only thing that can get you out of bed is a pair of soft, squishy wool socks, worn with your favourite cosy, oversized, fuzzy cardigan, while your morning coffee is bubbling and brewing, filling the house with its roasted and warm smell. Morning coffee socks will be your new favourite comfy socks.

CONSTRUCTION DETAILS
The socks are knitted in a brioche like textured stitch, easier to work than brioche, which will make for a thick, soft and squishy fabric, incredibly stretchy and very comfortable.
Socks are knitted from the toe-up, with German short rows toe and heel, an allover textured pattern, twisted rib cuff and a stretchy bind off.
