what better way to celebrate sock madness month than with two terrific pattern options, perfect for sideline knitting.
grille (above) is a unisex option worked in a squishy, knit/purl illusion texture, easy enough for beginners yet entertaining for experienced knitters, too.
twisted little sock (below) has a tiny, allover twist stitch pattern that adds just a touch of texture its sleek surface
these two socks were featured in the september installment of our passion 2014 club along with yarn hollow nantucket, a corriedale/nylon blend in this gorgeous deep purple and olive mix.
each has a beautifully fitted flap heel knit in cushy slip-stitch fabric.
the textures for these socks were chosen for their ability to move the color around and create a bit of an illusion.
grille has a stout, warm feel that is appreciated by men and women alike; the fabric is a bit more dense with lots of delicious depth.
while twisted little sock is a bit more feminine and dressy, in a stitch pattern that creates a a more streamlined fabric, though definitely dense enough to wear equally well.
shown above, twisted little sock is knit in size small from yarn hollow nantucket.
shown below, grille is knit in size large in the same nantucket colorway, purple velvet and golden olive
the generous yardage included in each skein of nantucket will knit up to a large size sock and for smaller sizes, may provided enough for a small pair of mitts or a pair of cuffs as well.
erica has created a kit for each design which includes yarn and pattern—click here to choose grille or here to choose twisted little sock.
