I really hope these socks bring back the feeling of the warm summer sun on those cold winter months. The combination of bright colors and eyelet lace really make these slipper socks look like cute little watermelons on your feet.

Chunky weight yarn is perfect for practicing your sock knitting skills. You get to work with bigger yarn on bigger needles which can make life so much easier if you are a newbie to sock knitting. Don’t be afraid of the lace in this pattern. It is a simple eyelet lace so you do not need to be a lace pro to get a beautiful pair of chunky socks.

Needles needed - US 7 DPNs, 9” circular, or 24” or longer circular for magic loop
Personally I am a 9” circular fan. If you go this route, you still need DPNs to work the heel flap and toe. Also know that the smaller size slipper sock does not have enough stitches to fit around the 9” circular.

Slipper socks fit 7.5” (8.5”, 9.5”) foot circumference. Measure near ball of foot.
Fits approximately women’s shoe size 5-6 (7-8, 9-10)
