POISONOUS MUSHROOMS SOCKS

To avoid Second Sock Syndrome you may like to knit one Sock of the POISONOUS MUSHROOMS SOCKS and one sock of the [EDIBLE MUSHROOMS SOCKS][1]. There is also a kids version [POISONOUS MUSHROOMS SOCKS KIDS][2] The pattern includes instructions for 48, 52, 56, and 60 stitches. This means the socks can also be knitted using fingering-weight yarn for these stitch counts; you simply need to add extra rows before starting the heel. **MATERIALS** **Yarn** This sock is a great way to use up some leftover bits and skeins out of your stash of DK/fingering weight sock yarn. The fingering yarn has to be held double. Use as many different colours as you like. For the poisonous mushrooms you will need at least 6 colours, 1 for the forest background, 1 for the mushroom stem, 2 for the mushroom heads, 1 for the forest ground and 1 for the soil. **Needles** US 4/3.5mm your choice: DPNs, Magic Loop, 9” Circular. Pattern is not written for a specific way of working in the round. **Notions** Stitch marker, tapestry needle [1]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/edible-mushrooms-socks [2]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/poisonous-mushrooms-socks-kids
