Black Cat Favourite Socks
Black Cat Favourite Socks pattern is the result of many years of knitting socks and honing my preferred techniques along with finding the best fit.
They are worked toe-up using a short row heel with added shaping to accommodate the instep.
They come in 5 adult sizes, with tips on how to modify to fit your foot.
This is the sock pattern I have memorized and knit over and over again, and I hope you love it too!
Sizing:
This pattern comes in 5 adult sizes, to fit a foot circumference of 8.5 (9, 9.5, 10, 10.5) inches / 21.5 (23, 24, 25.5, 26.5) centimetres
Pattern includes a chart for size measurements and recommend ease, as well as notes on how to custumize the fit to suit your exact measurements.
Needles:
2.5 mm/US Size 1.5 needles
Or needle sizes to obtain gauge
Notions:
Tapestry needle (for finishing)
Stitch Markers- removable
Yarn:
Any sock yarn can work. I recommend finding a blend of wool and nylon for durability or another yarn intended for sock knitting, and a weight of approx. 366-400 metres per 100 gram skein.
Approximate amounts required: 200-340 metres / 218-371 yards in total
Recommended yarns listed in the Ravelry page are some of the sock yarns I’ve personally used to make these socks before. I have also knit a couple of pairs using my own handspun yarn.
