Swallow Falls
Super cozy, slightly slouchy house socks with mohair for extra warmth and snuggle!
A collaboration with Hobbii. Many thanks to Hobbii for their support!
CONSTRUCTION & FIT:
Worked from the cuff down holding a sport weight yarn
double with laceweight mohair, these socks are intended to be extra tall with a slightly oversized fit. All-over ribbing makes them super stretchy, and a German short row heel fits snuggly worked in simple stockinette.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Sizes 1 (2, 3, 4) {5, 6, 7, 8} have a 7.5 (8, 8.5, 9) {9.5, 10, 10.5, 11}”/19 (20.5, 21.5, 23) {24, 25.5, 26.5, 28} cm finished circumference unstretched; socks are intended to have 0 or slight positive ease when worn.
Suggested shoe size: US Women’s 5.5-7 (7-8.5, 8.5-10, 10-11) {11-12, _, _, _}/US Men’s _ (_, _, 6-7) {7-8, 8-9.5, 9.5-11, 11-13}. These socks are very flexible because of the ribbing, so each finished circumference can fit multiple sizes!
