Pom Pom Shortie Socks
Pom Pom Shorties are a great little summer sock project. Ankle socks knit up so quickly, and let you wear your knitted socks all summer long.
Depending on your foot length, the small socks take approximately 180 yards, so it’s a great use for all those half-skeins in your stash!
The pom poms are optional, and add a cute little touch to peek out over your shoes, or just to wear as fun house socks. Each pom pom takes about 3 yards, so it’s a great way to use up leftovers.
The texture along the instep is created with fun and simple lifted stitches, which are easily memorized after a few rounds.
Sizes: S (M, L).
Foot circumference: 7 (8, 9)”/ 17.8 (20.3, 23)cm.
Needles: US 1 /2.25mm DPNs or size to obtain gauge.
Gauge: 32 sts and 40 rows = 4”/ 10cm in Stockinette stitch.
Yarn: fingering weight: 180 (200, 230) yards/ 165 (183, 211) meters; 5 - 6 yards each of 2 - 3 coordinating colors. (for pom poms).
Notions: stitch marker, tapestry needle.
