If there is one time you want to make sure you have some warm socks on, it’s when it’s time to hit the slopes! Nothing can ruin the fun of skiing like frozen toes. These socks are not just warm but also a fun way to show off your love for skiing on and off the snow! You can make them in a shorter or a longer version, depending on your wants and needs.

One size. Finished and blocked socks measure:
Length of the foot: approx. 24cm/9.4”.
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 knitting the shorter version and if sticking to gauge:
MC: 50 g
CC1: 10 g
CC2: 10 g
CC3: 5 g
CC4: 5 g
CC5: 5 g

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

Pattern is available in English and Swedish.

Techniques used: Stranded Colourwork, German Short Row Heel, Duplicate Stitching (optional), Kitchener Stitch.

The pattern has links to my accompanying videos on Youtube which explain some of the technical aspects of the work: How to work with magic loop; How to sew the kitchener stitch; How to do a Duplicate Stitch; How to knit a German Short Row Heel.
