~ Texture with no purl stitches ~

A perfect pattern for self-striping yarn. I love how the ‘Icicles’ melt the colors of the stripes. With just a 4 round repeat, these are easy to read and knit on the go.

Construction
Knit cuff down, in the round, using MagicLoop (my favorite) or DPNs if you prefer
~ knit what you like, how you like ~

Features
Slipped stitch texture worked over a 4 round repeat
Standard heel flap & square turn
My favorite-fit gusset with neat “no-hole” joins
Continued ‘icicles’ down the foot
Modified wedge toe (size specific for a perfect fit)

Sizes
3 sizes included: Small=56sts, Medium=64sts, Large=72sts
to fit leg circumference of 6.5”, 7.25”, and 8”

Instructions
Written instructions with lots of tips for a neat and tidy sock.
Pattern is also charted, if you prefer.

Yarn
Fingering weight sock yarn - any kind but self-striping is perfect for these

I used: Turtlepurl Yarn’s self-striping Merino Sock set: Mistletoe Kisses
(I highly recommend this yarn, it’s absolutely lovely)
