Urederra socks are an intermediate knitting level. They are knit cuff-down in the round, except the heel flap that is knit back and forth. The pattern includes one schematics and written instructions for the schematics.

The techniques you need to know to knit this socks are:
• Magic loop.
• Twisted German Cast On.
• Picking up stitches at the heel.
• Kitchener stitch.

In this design you will find 3 sizes to choose from. They will appear as: 1 (2, 3) and are equivalent to a foot circumference of 17.5 (20, 22.5) cm / 7 (8, 8.5) inches. Size 1 are written for 56 sts, size 2 for 64 sts and size 3 for 72 sts.

Materials:

For this design I used 2 skeins of Regia 4-fädig 4 ply. It’s a sock fingering weight yarn. For size 2 and foot 39 I used 71 grams total.

The equivalent is a 100 grams and 400 metres skein of fingering weight yarn designed for socks.

Tools:

  • 2.5 mm (US 1½) needle or size needed to obtain gauge. This pattern is written for circular needles with a 80 cm / 30 inches cable, using the magic loop technique, but it can be adapted to:
    • 5 Double pointed needles (DPNS).
    • Tiny circular needles with a 23 cm / 9 inches cable. If you use this, you will also need DPNS or a long circular needle to work the toes.
  • 1 border marker (BM).
  • 2 extra markers.
  • Tapestry needle.
  • Tape measure.
  • Scissors.
  • Row counter (optional but recommended).
  • Sock blockers (optional but recommended for a perfect finish once blocked).
