Striped with passed over stitches and purls, these cozy socks are perfect for wearing while eating muffins or baking the day away.

RECIPE:
This pattern also includes my recipe for apple muffins. There is a traditional recipe and a dairy free version, in separate files. Both versions of the recipe include US and Metric measurements.

Size and Gauge:
• This pattern includes three sizes: 56-stitch, 64-stitch, and 72-stitch, which will fit most adults. To adjust fit, go up or down a needle size based on your preferences.
• Approximately 8 stitches per inch.

Needles:
• I used 2.25mm (US size 1) needles, but please use whichever size of sock needles works for you.
• I used 32-inch-long circular needles for magic loop.

Yarn:
• Any fingering weight (1: superfine) yarn, or sock yarn, that includes nylon will work for this pattern.
• You will need between 200-400 yards, depending on the size you make, and the length of the leg.

The (64-stitch) sample I made used:
• Wildewood Fibers, Base No.1 (fingering weight, 2 ply, 400 yards per 100g skein, 80% superwash superwash merino wool and 20% nylon), in the colorway “Thistle Meadow.”
• 312 yards, 78g, used.

Notions:
• Tapestry needle

Skills Needed:
Perfect for the adventurous beginner, this pattern utilizes:
• Knitting and purling
• Increasing and decreasing
• Textured stitches
• Eye of partridge heel flap and gusset
