Hygge Socks were designed to be both super cozy to wear and a relaxing and meditative knit.

The socks are knit from the cuff down and start with a larger needle to create a snuggly and cozy sock leg. The heel and foot of the sock use a smaller needle to create a firmer, longer wearing fabric suitable for socks.

The Hygge cable is a combination of rhythmic 2 x 2 rib with a more engaging cable round twice in the repeat.

Five sizes are offered, and I’ve included both written and charted instructions.

Pairs well with a cozy nook for knitting in while enjoying a hot beverage. Enjoy!
