My very first design!

~~~

I wanted to create a pair of socks that were a little more than you’re basic vanilla, and also something where I didn’t have to really keep track of too many elements during the knit.

I love the look of a twisted stick rib… and so… the Straight Lines Socks came onto my needles!

~~~

There are 3 sizes available, which I think are able to accommodate most feet out in the world,

Small (56 stitches)
Medium (64 stitches)
Large (72 stitches)

~~~

Gauge is at 9 sts x 12 rows for 1” in stockinette, or 36 sts x 48 rows for 4”, using a 2.00mm (US 0) needle.

Note of gauge, if you are an avid sock knitter… feel free to use your go to sock needle size.

You’ll need:

Needles in the appropriate size for the required gauge
1 skein of fingering weight yarn
Two stitch markers
Darning needle
Scissors
