HOT TO GO! Socks are a fun pair of shorty/ankle socks inspired by Chappell Roan’s song HOT TO GO! They are knit cuff down with stranded colourwork on the leg and a bit of texture on the top of the foot. Feel free to lengthen the socks for a crew length sock (or longer) but be aware that yarn meterage will be affected.

Sizes
I have included instructions for 60, 64 and 68 stitch socks. These roughly translate to sizes for US Women’s 7-9. However just knit the size with the stitch count you like for socks! Adjust needle size to be the needles you like for socks! Sizes are a social construct!

Yardage
For Ankle length Socks you should be able to squeeze a pair out of 50g of the main colour (shown in pink), if you don’t like the threat of yarn chicken maybe grab a second skein just in case. You can use scraps for the contrast colour (shown in white), I only needed 15g

Needles
I like to knit the cuffs on 2mm and then the rest of the sock on 2.25mm needles but do what makes you happy
