| Blocks and Checks Socks |
|
|
| Knit by Vicki in CA Modeled by Arlene |
This pattern template will guide you through making socks from your handspun yarns. It features instructions
for a Dutch heel and wedge toe in many gauges and is simple enough for a beginning sock knitter. This template forms a base
for the other handspun designs shown below - the chatty instructions are here, and the designs below "plug in" to this template
and have much more abbreviated written instructions (suitable for an experienced sock knitter.) This template includes the
Blocks and Checks pattern.
Skill level: Adventurous Beginner - You should be able to knit and purl, but need not have made
a sock before. The instructions are clear and chatty and have plenty of sock shaping detail.
Vicki used a handspun Shetland X yarn in about worsted weight that I spun from roving and left its
natural color.
