We have a cosy pair of knitted socks for you this week.
Hand knitted socks are a treat, and this pair will certainly keep your feet warm.
They are knitted in West Yorkshire Spinners Fleece DK, 100% British Jacobs wool. The shade is Ecru (001) and there are other shades available if you prefer.
To view the shades and find your local stockist, visit www.wyspinners.com.
The socks are a woman’s shoe size 5 – 7 (UK sizing).
Difficulty Level
We have graded them as intermediate; the socks are worked on four double-pointed needles or a circular needle. The lace pattern is worked over two rows but turning a heel needs concentration if you have not done it before.
If these socks have sparked your interest, the design is taken from the book, Simply Knitted Socks by Christing Boggis, published by GMC Publications, RRP £14.99. It is available online or from good bookshops.
Knitted socks are a popular gift, so why not knit a pair or two to pop under the tree this year?
