Hematite Lace Socks
Hematite is a summertime sock you’ll want to knit any time of the year: lightweight, interesting, and easy to keep your place; a dream for travel knitting or a day at the beach.
They’re toe-up ankle socks with short-row toes and heels, lace panel detailing, plus short-row ankle shaping to help keep the sock heels from sliding down, and a ribbed border that lines up neatly with the lace panel. Charted and written instructions are included for the pattern stitch.
Yarn: Any smooth sock weight yarn. Shown in Regia 4-Fadig Color (color “4390”). Total yardage will depend on length of socks. Depending on length, you should be able to make at least up to the 46Sts (8in/20.3cm) size with a 50g. ball of sock yarn.
Gauge: Stockinette gauge: 7sts/in (28sts/4in, 28sts/10cm).
Pattern stitch gauge: 4.5 sts/in (18 sts/4in, 18 sts/10cm).
Needles: DPNs in size needed to obtain gauge. I used US 1 /2.25mm. Includes tips to adapt the pattern to circulars, magic loop, or 2 at a time methods.
Notions: 2 stitch markers.
Sizes: 10 sizes (by circumference), any length: Choose a size with between 1in/2.5cm - 1.5in/3.8cm of negative ease, as the lace pattern will stretch significantly on the foot.
Sz. 22sts (3.9in/9.9cm)/ Sz. 26sts (4.4in/11cm)/ Sz. 30sts (5.5 in/13.9cm)/ Sz. 34sts (5.8 in/14.7cm)/
Sz. 38sts (6.5in/16.5cm)/ Sz. 42sts (7.5in/19cm)(Shown)/ Sz. 46Sts (8in/20.3cm)/ Sz. 50sts (9in/22.8cm)/ Sz. 54sts (9.5in/24cm)/ Sz. 58sts (10in/25.4cm).
Skills: Knit, purl, yarn over, double yarn over, decrease, knit in the round, cast off. Wrap & turn short rows. Provisional cast on using single-crochet chain (instructions provided), OR Judy’s magic cast on, OR figure-8 cast on.
Accessibility Notes: All charted sections also written, 12 point serif font with bolded and some underlined headings, no columns (except for abbreviation key).
