Happy Holidays! That holiday spirit when people greet each other with warmth and kindness, that’s was the inspiration for these socks! Knit them for yourself to get into that spirit, or why not knit them for someone else who might need a bit of cheering up during the holiday season!

Finished and blocked socks measure:
Length of the foot: approx. 22.5 cm/8.8”.
Circumference: approx. 21 cm/8.3”.
Size can be adjusted by using smaller or larger sized needles or by adding or removing some rows.

The pattern specifies the yarns I have used, but any sock yarn of the same weight (100gr = 425 meters/465 yards or 50 g = 210 meters/230 yards) will work fine.

Approximate weight needed (if sticking to gauge):
MC: 30 g
CC1: 25 g
CC2: 20 g
CC3: 20 g
CC4: 10 g
+ short length of black yarn

Pattern is written for magic loop, but double pointed needles work as well if you prefer that, just make sure to make necessary adjustments.

Pattern is available in English and Swedish.
Afterthought Heel, Stranded Colourwork, Kitchener Stitch, Duplicate Stich

The pattern has links to my accompanying videos on Youtube which explain some of the technical aspects of the work (in English with English or Swedish subtitles): How to work with magic loop, how to sew duplicate stitches, how to sew the kitchener stitch.
