Lemon Squeezy is a delightful 8-sized sock pattern that is so easy to memorize - it makes for the ultimate summer road trip, an afternoon on the beach, or a TV knitting project. As easy peasy, as lemon squeezy!
The pattern has both toe-up/cuff-down constructions and contains written directions and charts - making this pattern ideal for your preferred knitting style. A link to my free Back to Basics sock pattern has been included in the pattern should you wish to swap out the heel (as simple as replacing the foot/leg directions with the desired heel without all the icky math!).
Worked in the round, Lemon Squeezy contains both cuff-down and toe-up written directions and a chart for the pattern stitch. The pattern has instructions for a peasant heel (afterthought heel using scrap yarn), but you may substitute whatever heel you enjoy using (links included for alternatives).
The pattern is written for the magic loop method for knitting socks; however, the design could be worked on double-pointed needles or mini-circulars instead should you prefer (ensure you denote your instep stitches with extra markers – so you don’t miss the placement of the heel or toe shaping).
This sock pattern shines well with solid, semi-solid, or lightly variegated/speckled yarns. Picking an appropriate yarn for this project will ensure you don’t lose the fun textures you’ll create.
