About the pattern – this pattern was the sock pattern of the month in March 2024

Look what lovely socks our best Jenny Blom Halling has designed – Wooly meadow Sock ❤ As part of Jenny’s Meadow series, we can’t help but love the structure of the chunky stitches and the shoulders that climb up over the foot and shaft. The socks are knitted in double thread of unspun yarn, if you want to strengthen, add a thread of mohair, or why not knit them in a Merino DK together with a thread of mohair? Dig around in your stash, you will surely find a suitable combination for these goodies. We dare to promise that the socks will be a fluffy dream! The sock is knitted from the bottom up. The pattern uses the Magic loop method, but you can of course use double pointed needles if you prefer. The shaft and foot come in two different widths, and you choose which one you want to use. You then decide the length of the foot based on the size you want.
