The Park Socks Kit comes in 1 kit size with enough yarn to make any of the sizes. Please keep in mind your gauge will affect how much yarn is used so gauge is critical in both how the garment will fit and also how much yarn you will use.
Kit will be for colours used in the pattern. If you have a copy of the book all yarn requirements are listed below as clickable links for you to take a look at all colours available.
Knee high socks are not just for fashionistas, but are practical for anyone looking to keep warm. This fuzzy pair in particular work great when worn with dresses or under pants for an extra cozy layer.
These socks are knit from the cuff down to the toe. The heel is shaped using the heel flap method and the toe is grafted together with Kitchener stitch. Instructions are written for double pointed needles, however Magic Loop technique can be used if preferred. If using Magic Loop, place a marker for each needle change when setting up gusset. Foot length is adjustable.
