This pretty toe up socks has a stitch pattern which incorporates twisted stitches and yarn over which look like cloisters with a little heart pattern created from the yarn overs at their peaks. I chose a grey yarn which reminded me of stone work and was in my stash, however any semi solid/ solid good 4ply sock yarn would look lovely in this pattern.

Although available in just one size, the stitch pattern is fairly stretchy and will easily fit a larger foot. This can also be achieved by using thicker yarn/bigger needles.

Size: One Size approx 8.5” around widest part of foot, will fit foot widths around this measurement.

Skills needed: Following charted lace patterns although written instruction are also provided, working in the round, working twisted stitches, short row shaping using the wrap and turn (w&t) method.

Yarn requirements: Any 100g (410-400m) sock yarn you wish to use, however I would suggest a semi solid or solid yarn as anything with too much variation and you will loose the pattern.

Needle Requirements: 2.25mm (or size to match gauge) long circular for magic loop or DPN’s if desired. The pattern is written with circular needles in mind but easily adapted for 3 or 4 dpns.

Gauge: 32 stitches to 48 rows using 2.25mm over 4”/10cm in stocking stitch, worked in the round.
