Striped Socks
This pattern features a lettuce-leaf cuff edge, a striped stockinette pattern, and a shadow-wrap short-row heel. It works quickly, with the seam on the back of the sock and under the sock for a neater design. This pattern is divided into five parts: cuff, leg, heel, foot, and toe.
Its in-depth descriptions and photo instructions make this pattern suitable for beginner-intermediate knitters. Sizes available range from EU women’s size 35 to 42, with adaptations for smaller/larger sizes.
The gauge for this pattern is 30 sts x 40 rows on 2,5mm needles and medium tension, but needle size and yarn weight can be altered to achieve a larger or smaller sock.
