Plain Jane Socks

This pattern was made for the very beginner with sock knitting. It is a very easy knitting pattern with a slip stitch heel flap, gusset, longer cuff and kitchener stitch toe. I used some Christmas yarn for these socks and they are so soft and comfortable especially for not being a tighter sock and in a slightly bigger needle than some other sock patterns and if your feet sometimes swell like mine do.

The gauge on this is 8 sts x 10 rows= 1”, which allows for maximum customization. It is done on a US Size 2 (2.75 mm) and you only need either a 32” circular or a set of DPNs, stitch markers and a darning needle. I also include some links in this pattern so that you may use the type of CO and yarn that I did.

I only used 1 skein of fingering weight yarn but if you choose to go longer or shorter, that could determine how many skeins you will need.
