The pattern for this sock is one size only. It is a cast on of 80 stitches on 2.25mm needles. Then model in the photos is 27cm circumference calf and they fit well, but not snuggly. These will fit a thicker calf, achieving an increase of negative ease. If you want to knit these for a larger calf , you can go up a needles size or two. They are knit cuff down, so the length of the foot can be decided by the knitter. This sock uses a help flap and gusset heel and a barn toe, but you can replace with your preferred method for each. These socks use stranded colourwork. You can knit with 2 colours only per row, adding the red heart with duplicate stitch. Alternatively you can use stranded colourwork using 3 colours per row. Which ever is your preference.
I designed these socks after returning to church this year after feeling God’s calling. My life have changed so much for the better and I feel safe in the knowledge that Jesus loves me, and he is my guiding light. I will be writing more Christian knitting patterns, and this is the first. I made these socks specifically for the Pastor running the Alpha course I am attending, because if anyone deserves hand knit socks, he does . I hope you enjoy making these I Love Jesus socks as much as I did. If you have any questions please email me naomi_fox@hotmail.co.uk, I am more than happy to help.
I used a West Yorkshire Spinners 4 ply, but any 4 ply achieving gauge can be used.
