This pattern was the featured Mystery Knit A Long for Solid Socks for April-May 2020. There were 5 clues, one released weekly for five weeks.

For this mystery, I designed a lovely textured sock with a cosy, Guernsey/Gansey feel and interesting small details.

This is a pattern that is suitable for top down or toe-up construction. Knitters can use their preferred toe and heel construction, and I have provided helpful links to different heel and toe treatments.

Stitches used are Knit, Purl, Yarn Over, SSK, and K2tog. Toe-up construction will need M1L and M1R. Pattern is both written and charted for each size. Please note that even though the stitch pattern includes Yarn Overs, it is still suitable for men OR women.

The sock is available in 4 sizes:
Teen fingering/Adult sport,
Adult Medium,
Adult Large

Materials: Fingering weight yarn, 400-460 yards to 100 grams (56-stitch Adult Sport requires 200-250 yds)

Needles US size 1 (2.25mm) for fingering weight or size US 3 (3.25mm) for sport weight
