Knitted socks

These aren’t your average house socks. Made for strutting across parquet floors, posing with coffee cups, or pairing with heels just because you can. Fluffy ribbed texture, mid-calf length, and stitched in cloud-like yarn.

The socks are knitted in the round top down, with a simple ribbed edge at the top (1 knit, 1 purl) and then continued with a double ribbing pattern (2 knit, 2 purl). Stitches are increased in the pattern to shape the heel, then stitches are decreased to turn the heel (the heel flap is knitted back and forth). After that, the sock is knitted in the round and the toe decrease is sewn together with kitchener stitch at the end.
