If you’re looking for a cosy, woolly pair of socks, this is the crochet pattern for you! They feature a textured detail which goes down the outside of each foot and extended double crochet stitches for excellent stretch.

This is an INTERMEDIATE level pattern, written in UK terms.

I’ve crocheted these socks in 2 different yarns. Both yarns behaved very similarly and both have the toothy quality needed for these socks.

Not using the specified yarn? Choose either solid, semi solid or subtly variegated yarn to ensure the texture shows up. The pattern is also best suited to a yarn with a little bit of toothiness, rather than a high twist, smooth yarn.

There are 6 video tutorials to guide you through the process. I’m also fully available should you have any questions.

These socks are worked cuff down, with the Leg, Foot & Toe worked in the round. The Heel, Heel Turn & Heel Flap are worked in rows.

This crochet pattern has been tech edited and tested.
