The Candy Twist Socks are designed as a super entry level sock pattern that can be worked plain without cables or with the additional cable design for a more adventurous knitter. There are videos on my tiktok account that explain everything from the materials to knitting and purling as well as the sock construction worked step by step. https://www.tiktok.com/@gooseandganderknits

Additionally two downloads are available, one pdf contains a concise version of the pattern, for anyone already familiar with sock knitting and a second one with added tips and more detailed explanations.

Overall the pattern utelizes the most common sock techniques, like working cuff down, a heel flap and a kitchener graft for the toe. It uses standard US 1/2,5mm needles, either DPN or Magic Loop, and is worked with fingering weight 4 ply sock yarn.

Since I’m new to pattern making I encourage everyone to reach out to me if they need help or have found any issues in my pattern.
