Bries (Dutch word for Breeze) is the third pattern in my Subtle Sock Collection. It made me think of the crisp autumn air blowing through the trees and rustling leaves.

This sock design is part of the Subtle Sock Collection E-book. It’s a stranded colourwork sock, knit toe-up, features a gusset, shortrow heel and heelflap, and a twisted ribbed cuff. The pattern is written in a clear step-by-step manner, so that no previous knowledge of knitting socks is required. Experience with colourwork knitting is advised.

The patterns are available in six different adult sizes (women small-medium-large and men small-medium-large).

Gauge: 34 sts and 36 rounds = 10x10cm measured over stranded colourwork knit in the round. I achieved this gauge on a 2.5mm/US1.5 needle.

The pattern is written for circular needles but you can also knit it on DPNs.

This sock design uses 2 different yarns: Scheepjes Metropolis for the solid pattern colour, and Scheepjes Our Tribe for the variegated/gradient background colour. For the smaller sizes, you will need 1 ball of each. For larger sizes (women’s large and all men’s sizes) you will need 2 balls of Scheepjes Metropolis and 1 ball of Scheepjes Our Tribe.
