Homebody Socks

Homebody, A person who enjoys the warmth and simple pleasures of being at home. These socks are perfect for a morning in, put on your cozy, warm socks, grab a mug of coffee and get all cuddled under a quilt with your favorite book. These socks are knit from the cuff down, in the round using the magic loop method. The pattern is textured, a very simple garter rib that is both easy to memorize and quick to knit. The garter ribs flows into the heel, the heel does not require any picked up stitches and hugs the heel so well. In this pattern, I used a lovely 4 ply yarn held double with mohair for the added softness however the pattern looks just as good and is just as cozy without the mohair, especially if you use a luxury yarn like mcn. If you don't like mohair, go without it or use an alternate yarn like a suri alpaca lace. If you have never used a tubular cast on, there are some great tutorials available on youtube, here are just a few, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89Zoz0FKQg0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXKXPbM3BSE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEbC-2C5dO0
