Product Details
The Alchemy Socks are cosy with a delicate pattern making them perfect for the transitional seasons. The pattern includes ankle length socks and trainer socks. Suitable for a confident beginner who can knit in the round - I have written and picture instructions for most techniques, but you may find watching a video useful if you have never worked the techniques before. The socks are knitted from the cuff to the toes in the round. I use small circular needles, but you can use the magic loop method or DPNs based on your preference.
Techniques used: knitting in the round, decreasing using k2tog and SSK, increasing using YO, picking up stitches, kitchener stitch (instructions included in pattern)
Yarn: You can use any DK yarn but it does need to have some stretch for socks. Specific sock yarns are more hard wearing. I have used merino wool as it is super comfy and already in my stash. 25-50g/sock of listed yarn.
Gauge: Knit in repeated pattern 24 sts x 32 rows. In stst, 22 sts x 34 rows
