Stockinette & Striped CSM Socks // Design by Felicia Lo
Knit on a circular sock machine from the cuff down with a neat hung hem, these socks are worked in two main colours with a cheerful contrasting stripe near the hem for a touch of old-fashioned charm. Warm, practical, and timeless, they're the socks you'll reach for all winter long.
This pattern is free for School of SweetGeorgia members.
We've created three yarn set options for knitting this fun sock design: Garden Gate, Campfire Morning, and Winter Porch (used in the sample shown here).
