These were a special design for my father in law. He works outside all year round, which means his toes can get quite chilly, and these socks are the cure! They are knitted with bulky weight 100% wool to give extra warmth. I used 1.5 skeins of Lamb’s Pride Superwash Bulky for the main color, and .5 skeins for the contrast color. These socks are great for people who work outside, but these are also AWESOME lounging-around-the-house socks. These socks should fit most average to larger built men. (The reason they look a little big in the photos is because my husband was modeling, and he’s more slight of build.) If size needs to be adjusted, I recommend using smaller needles and/or a lighter weight yarn until you achieve the gauge needed for the size you need.

As always, I’m here to help and answer questions regarding this pattern!
