Les moutons de Biscotte

<h2 data-mce-fragment="1">This sock pattern is a design by Louise Robert originally published in 2012. Les Moutons de Biscotte, which means "Biscotte's sheep" in french, has been knitted hundreds of times since then! Nearly a decade later, the designer of this pattern offers you a reedited version!</h2> <h3 data-mce-fragment="1">This model is worked from the toes up with a short-row heel. The sheep pattern is worked in stranded colorwork which means that the unused yarn follows on the back of the work.</h3> <h4 data-mce-fragment="1">Use two contrasting colors for a neat and beautiful result! ...and be careful not to fall asleep while counting sheep!</h4> <strong>IN ADDITION TO THE FREE PATTERN, YOU WILL NEED THE FOLLOWING MATERIALS TO KNIT THESE SOCKS:</strong> <a href="https://biscotteyarns.com/collections/biscotte-yarns/bis-sock">BISCOTTE YARNS – BIS-SOCK</a> [85% merino superwash, 15% nylon, 400 meters per 100 g skein] ***Also available as knitting kits <ul> <li>Main color (MC) <a href="https://biscotteyarns.com/products/bis-sock-yarn-heureux-dun-printemps-self-striping-hand-dyed-yarn">Heureux d’un printemps</a></li> <li>Contrasting color (CC) <a href="https://biscotteyarns.com/products/bis-sock-yarn-vanille-hand-dyed-sock-yarn">Vanille</a></li> </ul> <a href="https://biscotteyarns.com/collections/knitting-needles/circular-knitting-needles">NEEDLES circular</a> or <a href="https://biscotteyarns.com/collections/knitting-needles/dpn-needles">dpn’s</a> of 2.5 mm (US #1.5) and 3 mm (US #2.5) or size needed to obtain gauge. <a href="https://biscotteyarns.com/products/tapestry-needles-in-a-practical-case-by-john-james-pebble">Tapestry needle</a> <strong>GAUGE</strong> <ul> <li>30 stitches = 10 cm in stranded colorwork on 3 mm (US #2.5)</li> <li>32 stitches = 10 cm in stockinette stitch on 2.5 mm (US #1.5)</li> </ul> La version française de ce patron se trouve sur [LesLainesBiscotte.com][1] [1]: https://leslainesbiscotte.com/products/patron-bas-les-moutons-de-biscotte
