Go-to Sock Printed Pattern

Everyone needs a go-to-sock pattern, and this is mine! Developed over years of knitting socks, it’s the pattern that I knit over and over again for myself, family and friends. Choose a sturdy sock yarn in a plain colour, multicoloured or striped or get creative with contrast heels and toes – this design is a canvas for your sock yarn collection. Featuring 3 sizes, you'll be able to knit socks for all the adults in your family! 

This is an A5 sized paper printed pattern. Patterns ship in a hard backed envelope.
