THIS IS A KNITTING PATTERN, NOT SOCKS. Please read the pattern description.

This 3 dimensional pattern is available in sizes all the way from 3 years to adult large! It uses primarily increases and decreases to create its shape, along with short rows - and a few other tricks.

This pattern is written to be fully readable for all sock knitting types, whether that be circular needles, double pointed needles, magic loop… you name it! This pattern is also written with both metric and imperial measurements.

The childrens’ sizes and adult sizes are in two separate PDFs, so that the size differentiations can be as clear as possible.

Gauge for this pattern is not crucial, and some minor variation can be allowed.

Please be sure to check out the test knits!! You can view more photos on Instagram, under #jurassicsocks
