The folk flower socks are worked cuff down with a simple and striking colorwork motif that can be placed at the cuff, toe, or anywhere in between! The pattern includes helpful tips for working stripes, and instructions for working shorty socks or calf-length socks.

SIZES
Kid (5-6” / 13 – 15 cm) S (7” / 18 cm) M (8” / 20 cm) L (9” / 23 cm) XL (10” / 25 cm)

Tip: If you measure between sizes, you might be unsure about which size you should knit. For example, if you measure 8.5” / 22 cm, do you knit the size M or the size L? The answer can be found in your gauge! If you are a tight knitter, go with the bigger size. If you are a loose knitter, go with the smaller size.

GAUGE
38 sts = 4” / 10 cm, knit in stockinette in the rnd and blocked

MATERIALS
I dyed up my own yarn for these socks (side note: dying yarn is a lot of fun, but it is also a very hot, sweaty endeavor!). I’ve found comparable colors from Lang Jawoll, however, and have included them below should you want to knit socks using colors almost identical from mine!
