Sturdy stripes socks

**Sturdy stripes socks** After knitting my Sturdy stripes shawl, I was left with those lovely **little leftovers** from each of the **24 mini skeins in my yarn advent** calendar. Deciding what to do with them wasn't difficult at all—I simply had to design a **matching pair of Sturdy stripes socks**! Just like the shawl, this sock pattern is wonderfully versatile. It's perfect for **using up your leftover sock yarn** to create a fun pair of scrappy socks, but it also looks fantastic when worked in two or more colors. Whether you choose solid shades, variegated yarn, or hand-dyed leftovers, you'll end up with a beautiful pair of bold striped socks. The stripe sequence is slightly different from the one used in the shawl, giving the socks their own playful character while still making them a perfect match. I hope you enjoy knitting them as much as I enjoyed designing them. Happy knitting! The pattern is available in **3 languages, each language has its own pdf.** **For DPNs, Magic Loop and short circulars** This **cuff down** sock pattern with **heel flap and gusset** is easy to knit, also for beginning sock knitters. It is suitable for knitting with **DPNs, magic loop and short circulars**. The instructions for these different type of needles are clearly indicated in the text. **Sizes** The pattern contains instructions for **4 width sizes**: S and M (60sts) L (64 sts) XL (68 sts) combined with the following **length sizes**: EU sizes 36-45 US sizes 4.5-13 (f) UK sizes 3-10.5 The pattern includes **a chart to help you easily determine your personal sock size.** **Material** You can use 70-85 grams (in total) of any 4 ply sock yarn you like, with a gauge of 30x42, by 10x10 cm. When you choose a sock yarn with a gauge of 28 x 40 the socks will be a little wider.
