Quick knit socks using worsted wt and size 8 needles for all you sock knitters who want a quick project that you can actually finish. Perfect for gift giving as the sizing is very relaxed so they will fit most feet easily.
I hear so much from my sock classes that they take so long to knit that they don’t often finish so here is the incentive to get a whole pair done in a couple of weeks or less.
They are knitted toe up and pattern is written for magic loop but you can sub dpn’s if you wish and that means no Kitchener at the end!!
Sizes are S-L and I had ladies from sz 51/2 to 10 try them on and they were fine. Also XL-men’s which are a bit bigger.
Easy to measure foot length to get that part right and you can make them as long as you want-I made them short as they are for around the house.
I had about 10 yards left from 1 skein of the Tapestry.
Row gauge is not important as you can adjust foot length as you go.
10/16- please note, I have published a new version of this pattern to clarify some points and fix typos.
Please download the new version.

Hope you enjoy this free pattern-please give me a heart if you do, thanks!
if you are a very loose knitter, I would go down a needle size.
