Keep your feet nice and toasty on your next woodland walk with these Forest Floor socks. Knit in soothing stocking stitch with a delicate pine cone pattern running up the front, these socks will make the perfect companion.

Knit in in the round from the toe up using West Yorkshire Spinners Signature 4ply, these socks use a variety of techniques such as Judy’s magic cast-on, and a heel flap and gusset, created using short rows and a series of simple increases and decreases. The pine cone design is worked along the top of the foot and front of the leg only, and can be worked from either the chart or written instructions.

You can find tutorials for the techniques used in this pattern on my Substack. I’m adding new ones all the time so if you can’t find what you’re looking for let me know and I’ll see what I can do.
