The tulip is one of my favourite flowers! I love the endless variety of colours it comes in and how it can brighten up a whole room with its exuberance! The most common meaning of this flower is “perfect and deep love”. So these socks are the perfect gift for someone you hold dear, a friend, a partner, a child - or why not yourself?

Finished and blocked socks measure:
Length of the foot: approx. 22,5 cm/8.8”.
Circumference: approx. 21 cm/8,3”.
Size can be adjusted by using smaller or larger sized needles or by adding or removing some rows.

The pattern specifies the yarns I have used, but any sock yarn of the same weight (100gr = 425 meters/465 yards or 50 g = 210 meters/230 yards) will work fine.

Approximate weight needed (if sticking to gauge):

MC: 50 g
CC1: 10 g
CC2: 10 g
CC3: 10 g
CC4: 10 g
CC5: 10 g

Pattern is written for magic loop, but double pointed needles work as well if you prefer that, just make sure to make necessary adjustments.

Pattern is available in English.

Techniques used: German Short Row Heel, Stranded Colourwork, Kitchener Stitch.

The pattern has links to my accompanying videos on Youtube which explain some of the technical aspects of the work (in English with English or Swedish subtitles): How to work with magic loop, how to sew the kitchener stitch, how to make a German Short Row Heel.
