Luftige Sommer Sokker
(På dansk længere nede)
9 different lace patterns on the forefoot and 9 different decorative ribbings which can be combined as you like.
Luftige Sommer Sokker translates to Airy Summer Socks, but they could also be used as (bed) slippers and make a fine gift.
They stay nicely put because of negative ease in both width and in the length + the ribbing, if you keep the gauge and carefully follow instructions on measuring.
This Ebook does not explain how to work the stiches used, but you can find them all by a googling.
Stitches used (not all in all patterns) k, p, k or p tbl, k or p 2tog, ssk, central double decrease and yo.
All patterns are charted, written versions might come later, but then in a seperate pattern for each.
Yarn: Sock yarn with a running length of 420 meter/100 gram (210 meter/50 gram)/Fingering Weight.
For a pair in size 38/39 EU / womens´s 7.5-8, you will need about 45 grams / 1.6 ounches.
Even though most wear cotton based socks in summer, wool based can feel much better on your feet. This because wool has both a much higher degree of temperature regulation and as wool can absorb up to 60% of its own weight in moisture, without feeling damp, Cotton only 6-8%.
The temperature regulation is even better, if there is silk in your sock yarn. I often use Regia Silk, which is a high quality sock yarn made of 20% silk, 55% wool and 25% polyamide – you can clearly feel the difference, much cooler, when the weather is hot and the other way around.
Needles: 2.5 mm. / 1.5 US or the size that gets you a gauge of 32 stitches x 40 rows in stockinette stitches = 10 X 10 cm. / 4 x 4 inches
The patterns can be worked on any kind of knitting needles, also two at a time.
9 forskellige mønstre på forfoden og 9 forskellige dekorative rib, som kan kombineres på kryds og tværs.
Sokkerne bliver fint siddende hvor de skal, hvis du er omhyggelig med at holde strikkefastheden og med at følge anvisningerne på at måle.
Masketyperne er kendt af de fleste og ikke svære - den mest ukendte er nok 3 ret midtstillet sammen, men den kan du google.
Strikkemønstrene er alle som diagrammer - der vil komme en engelsk version af hver enkelt senere med tekstet strikkevejledning.
Det er ikke planlagt på dansk, men måske, hvis det ønskes.
Jeg anbefaler at du bruger et godt strømpegarn med uld og gerne også silke (fx Regia Silk), selvom de fleste bruger bomulds-baserede sokker om sommeren.
Men bomuld har langt fra samme temperatur-regulerende og svedabsorberende effekt, som uld og specielt silke har.
Sokkerne kan strikkes på alle pinde-typer, også 2-ad-gangen
