Socks are the perfect take-with-you knitting project, so it is no surprise to hear I love a sock pattern that is easy to read, keeps my mind engaged, but is not too complicated. The Follow Along Socks fit this description perfectly.

The combination of knits and purls, along with slipped stitches and stockinette rows, creates a sock with interesting texture that both looks good in any type of yarn and is fun to knit. An added benefit is once you set up the pattern repeat, it is quickly memorizable and easy to follow.

As written, the textured pattern is only pictured on the front/top of the sock, but it can be easily modified to also be knit around the entire leg if desired.

The Follow Along Sock pattern includes written and charted directions, as well as video tutorials for knitting the heel in both DPN and magic loop methods. It features a heel flap and gusset heel construction with video tutorials that have been created with a beginner sock knitter in mind.

Sizes available - Small (8 inch foot circumference), Medium (9 inch foot circumference) and Large (10 inch foot circumference)

I recommend choosing a size that allows for at least one inch of negative ease. Length of foot is easily adjustable per notes in the pattern.

Gauge is approximately 8 stitches per inch.
