A few years ago I wrote a pattern for a 4 ply spiral toe up sock. I’d forgotten I’d planned to write an 8 ply. Living with BPD has its challenges, as well as it’s gifts. Being organised and remembering can be two of those challenges. The gift being my creativity.
Yarn: 8ply 150gms
Needles: 3.5mm needles to knit in the round. I used Addi Crasytrio and sock wonders.
Cast on 8sts using Judy’s magic cast on
Toe
Rnd 1 and odd rnds knit
Rnd 2 ( k1, kfb) (12 sts)
Rnd 4 ( k2, kfb) (16 sts)
Rnd 6 (3, kfb) (20 sts)
Continue increasing in the same manner until there are 52 sts
Next rnd knit
Leg
Place a st marker to mark beginning of round
Work (K2,p2) rib for six rounds
* Next remove marker, k1, replace marker
Work (k2,p2) rib for six rounds
Repeat from * until sock measures 40 cm
Cast off in a stretchy cast off. I recommend the Icelandic bind off. Refer to my YouTube tutorial.
Well Done Tracy
