Funfetti Fade Socks
With faded stripes made by subtle purl stitches, these cozy socks are perfect for keeping your feet toasty and warm.
Size and Gauge:
• This pattern includes three sizes: 56-stitch, 64-stitch, and 72-stitch, which will fit most adults. To adjust fit, go up or down a needle size based on your preferences.
• Approximately 8 stitches per inch.
Needles:
• I used 2.25mm (US size 1) needles, but please use whichever size of sock needles works for you.
• I used 32-inch-long circular needles for magic loop.
Yarn:
• Any fingering weight (1: superfine) yarn, or sock yarn, that includes nylon will work for this pattern.
• You will need between 200-400 yards, depending on the size you make, and the length of the leg.
• You will need a full skein and a mini skein, or a sock set.
The (64-stitch) sample I made used:
• Woolberry Fiber Co., Berry Sock Set (fingering weight, 2 ply, 400 yards per 100g skein, plus 80 yards per 20g mini, 80% superwash superwash merino wool and 20% nylon), in the colorway “Pop-Tarts are Pop-Tarting.”
