Apple Muffins Socks

Striped with passed over stitches and purls, these cozy socks are perfect for wearing while eating muffins or baking the day away. **RECIPE:** This pattern also includes my recipe for apple muffins. There is a traditional recipe and a dairy free version, in separate files. Both versions of the recipe include US and Metric measurements. **Size and Gauge:** • This pattern includes three sizes: 56-stitch, 64-stitch, and 72-stitch, which will fit most adults. To adjust fit, go up or down a needle size based on your preferences. • Approximately 8 stitches per inch. **Needles:** • I used 2.25mm (US size 1) needles, but please use whichever size of sock needles works for you. • I used 32-inch-long circular needles for magic loop. **Yarn:** • Any fingering weight (1: superfine) yarn, or sock yarn, that includes nylon will work for this pattern. • You will need between 200-400 yards, depending on the size you make, and the length of the leg. The (64-stitch) sample I made used: • Wildewood Fibers, Base No.1 (fingering weight, 2 ply, 400 yards per 100g skein, 80% superwash superwash merino wool and 20% nylon), in the colorway “Thistle Meadow.” • 312 yards, 78g, used. **Notions:** • Tapestry needle **Skills Needed:** Perfect for the adventurous beginner, this pattern utilizes: • Knitting and purling • Increasing and decreasing • Textured stitches • Eye of partridge heel flap and gusset
