Quilting Bee Socks
Reminiscent of quilted stitches, these textured socks are perfect for wearing while sewing the day away, or while sitting around a warm fire wrapped in a cozy quilt.
Size and Gauge:
• This pattern includes three sizes: 56-stitch, 64-stitch, and 72-stitch, which will fit most adults. To adjust fit, go up or down a needle size based on your preferences.
• Approximately 8 stitches per inch.
Needles:
• I used 2.25mm (US size 1) needles, but please use whichever size of sock needles works for you.
• I used 32-inch-long circular needles for magic loop.
Yarn:
• Any fingering weight (1: superfine) yarn, or sock yarn, that includes nylon will work for this pattern.
• You will need between 250-400 yards, depending on the size you make.
The (64-stitch) sample I made used:
• Six and Seven Fiber, Clover (fingering weight, 3 ply, 443 yards per 115g skein, 75% superwash Corriedale wool and 25% nylon), in the colorway “Patchwork.”
• 324 yards, 84g, used.
Notions:
• Tapestry needle
Skills Needed:
Perfect for the adventurous beginner, this pattern utilizes:
• Knitting and purling
• Increasing and decreasing
• Textured stitches
• Eye of partridge heel flap and gusset
