Feels like summer socks
Feels like summer socks
These ultra-short summer socks are a joy to knit and to wear. Instead of the typical short row heel often used in short socks, these shorties feature a more traditional heel flap and gusset construction. This ensures a perfect fit. You’ll start knitting the heel right after finishing the cute rolled cuff. The round toe (knitted in helical stripes) in the same contrast colors as the cuff, completes the look. It’s the perfect scrappy project — just 35 grams and a few mini leftovers are enough to knit one pair of Feels Like Summer Socks in size 39-40. And they’re finished before you know it!
A little bonus
The stockinette stitches on the top of the foot can easily be replaced with a cute lace pattern which can be found in my free Chicky Lace Socks pattern. This particular lace chart is also included in this pattern booklet.
The pattern is available in 3 languages, each language has its own pdf.
For DPNs, Magic Loop and short circulars
This cuff down sock pattern with heel flap and gusset is easy to knit, also for beginning sock knitters. It is suitable for knitting with DPNs, magic loop and short circulars. The instructions for these different type of needles are clearly indicated in the text.
Sizes
The pattern contains instructions for 4 width sizes:

combined with the following length sizes:
EU sizes 36-45
US sizes 4.5-13 (f)

The pattern includes a chart to help you easily determine your personal sock size.
Material
You can use 40-55 grams of any 4 ply sock yarn you like, with a gauge of 30x42, by 10x10 cm. When you choose a sock yarn with a gauge of 28 x 40 the socks will be a little wider.
I wish you lots of knitting fun!
