Arctic Flannel
The slip stitch pattern of these cozy socks reminded me of warm flannel in winter. The fabric of these socks is very thick and squishy! They are like a worsted weight house or slipper sock, and are very warm. Excellent for fireside lounging, coffee drinking, apres ski, and general cold weather snuggling up!
I have included instructions for both toe-up and top-down socks, making it easy for you to use your preferred method of knitting. There are also written and chart instructions.
There are three sizes to choose from. Keep in mind that the slip stitch pattern does have a fair amount of stretch, so try on your socks as you go to optimize fit.
Choose two yarns with a strong contrast. This pattern works for even the wildest skeins out there.
Arctic Flannel has a sister pattern, Northern Flannel, a fingering weight version. If you purchase both patterns the second is only $1.
