Fire Bolt Socks
These Art Deco inspired socks are cloaked in the wizardly power of a fire bolt.
Get 20% off the Fire Bolt Socks now through Monday, September 27th, 2021. No coupon code needed!
The Fire Bolt Socks are worked in the round from the cuff down with stranded knitting, using either long circular needles to work in Magic Loop or DPNs. To avoid a jog, the leg pattern begins off-centered on the back of the leg. Instructions are included to move the beginning of the round later in the pattern. This sock pattern is recommended for knitters who have experience with stranded colorwork, knitting in the round, and reading charts.
As a bonus, instructions for a functional gauge swatch in the form of a coffee cozy are included in the pattern!
YARN
Two skeins of Lattes & Llamas Vacation Yarn (100 grams/ 463 yards) or a comparable fingering weight yarn in two contrasting colorways.
Sample size 1 is shown in ‘Draconis Infernus’ as MC and ‘Palpatine’ as CC.
MC: 58(64, 70) grams/ 269(297, 326) yards
CC: 25(28, 31) grams/ 116(127, 143) yards
The yardage listed above is estimated and may vary depending on yarn used, gauge variations, or modifications.
NEEDLES
US1 / 2.25 mm and US2 / 2.75 mm to work in Magic Loop or size needed to obtain gauge.
I prefer the Magic Loop method when knitting socks. If you are more comfortable using DPNs or two circulars, this pattern is easily converted.
GAUGE
32 sts and 40 rnds = 4” in stranded colorwork, knit in the round with larger size needles and blocked.
Instructions for a functional gauge swatch in the form of a coffee cozy are included in the pattern.
SIZING
Size 1(2, 3) has an 8(9, 10) inch foot circumference.
As with many colorwork socks, these were designed with little to no ease. Choose the size closest to your actual foot measurement.
