Cordes Socks

Cordes-sur-Ciel is a beautiful medieval mountain village in the south of France. Its atmosphere, a cosy isolated place in the middle of a stunning landscape, is a knitwear fantasy. I wanted to create socks that would fit with those textured jumpers and plaid blankets we all love in these perfect winter sceneries. The Cordes socks feature a minimalistic front line of diamonds made with simple but engaging twisted stitches. I think this texture works perfectly with more rustic wool but it will show off beautifully with any sock yarn. **Yarn :** 1 skein of fingering weight sock yarn. 100g - 400 m (424 yds) **Needles :** Size 2.00 (US 0) to 2.5mm (US 1.5) needles or size required to get gauge. **Gauge :** 8 st per 2,5 cm / 1 inch in stockinette on 2mm (US 0) needles. **Sizing :** The pattern includes instructions for a stitch count of 60 (64/68/72) : the intended fit is not necessarily your usual negative ease, but more a comfortable homewear sock. **Details :** The socks are knit cuff down. Option for a heel flap and gusset or a German short-row heel. Pattern includes written and charted instructions. ------ **Laine :** Vous aurez besoin d'environ 100g – 400m de laine à chaussette fingering.
