This pattern was designed as part of the Blue Moon Fiber Arts Rockin’ Sock Club with the theme of Lost in Space. I have loved the Star Wars movies forever, and was so happy to have chance to design a Star Wars themed pattern.

Skywalker socks are full of fun to knit texture, including a gorgeous mirrored asymmetrical cable and purl rounds. They are my favourite balance between a patterned and a vanilla sock.

Highlights of Skywalker Socks:

  • cuff down

  • heel flap & gusset construction with a square heel turn (the fit is super comfortable!)

  • the cable pattern is mirrored on each leg

  • rounds of purl add to the overall texture

  • Socks that Rock is a very plump, round yarn and shows off the stitch patterns so well

  • easily modified to fit any size foot (include the cable pattern and add or subtract and number of stitches to make the perfect size for you)

  • written for magic loop but is easily modified to use DPNs

  • feel free to substitute your favourite fitting heel or to knit these toe up instead

  • as always, this pattern has been professionally tech edited. Thanks Kate!
