Love Story Socks is one that you will want to knit again and again. The possibilities are endless. You can use up some minis, use two full or even half skeins. Have fun with this one and make it your own!I can’t wait to see what ya’ll come up with for this one.

Pattern includes:

  • Written and charted instructions.
  • Tutorial links for: German twisted cast on, Kitchener stitch, weaving in ends AS YOU GO, as well as weaving in ends after you’re done knitting, AND also for the special stitch that is done in the pattern.
  • Notes on how you can weigh your yarn to see if you have enough for a section. Knowing this simple detail will open up a world of possibilities, confidence, and some freedom to make each project your own!

Grab some scraps, or a mini skein set + full skein, and have some fun! (read below for yarn requirements)

Pattern is written for a cuff down sock with instructions for a heel flap and gusset. If you prefer toe up and have your toe up recipe you could easily insert the patterned section into that.
