Shifty Rib Socks
With clean lines and comfy ribbing, these socks have just enough patterning to make them interesting to knit, but still blissfully effortless. They’re complicated enough for a solid colored yarn, but simple enough for a multi-colored hand-dyed yarn.
Yarn: 300(340, 380, 430) yards {275(311, 348, 394) meters}of sock weight yarn. Sample shown in SpunRightRound SW Sock 80/20 (80% Superwash Merino Wool/20% Nylon, 400 yds/100 g) in ‘Grafitti Overlay’.
Gauge: 18 sts & 26 rows = 2 inches (5 cm) square in stockinette stitch after blocking.
Notions: stitch markers, tapestry needle to weave in ends.
Needles: 2.25mm (US 1) needle(s). Use your preferred method for small circumference knitting: e.g. double points, magic loop or two-circulars.
Finished Sizes: S(M, L, 1X) with actual circumference of 6(7, 8, 9) inches {15.25(17.75, 20.25, 22.75)cm} to fit 7(8, 9, 10) inches 17.75(20.25, 22.75, 25.5)cm foot circumference. Length of foot is variable.
