Knit Toe Up Socks Pattern
For anyone who would like to try to knit the toe-up style of sock this is a good pattern to test out. The biggest advantage of knitting a sock from the toe up is a perfect fit. You can try the sock on as you go and make adjustments to the pattern to make the sock a custom fit.
Materials
Worsted weight yarn, about 200 yards
Set of 5 double-pointed needles, size 5 or 6 (US). If you use 4 dp’s, you’ll have to be very careful on the increases, which are described in terms of needle numbers.
Gauge: about 5 1/2 stitches per inch, which is tighter than is usual for this weight yarn.
Note: I use a lifted increase for the toe and gusset increases, because I like the control over which way the new stitches slant away from the old ones. This is made by lifting the loop from the back of a stitch one row below the row you are knitting. You may substitute your favorite inconspicuous increase, such as lifting the bar between the two stitches below, twisting and knitting through it (often called “make 1″).
Figure-Eight Cast-on (phony grafted toe)
Based on the method used in Anna Zilboorg’s Fancy Feet. For a nice, clear explanation of how this is done, see Kim Salazar’s Simple Toe-Up Socks.

Purl When Ready Sock Pattern
This is a rather unusual sock pattern that uses a unique technique and variegated yarn to create a special pattern. Get the best results from your lovely hand dyed sock yarns using this pattern.
Materials:
- 1 ball Opal Tiger sock yarn
- Set of 5 double pointed needles size 1.5 or size needed to attain gauge.
Size:
Woman’s large (9 – 10 shoe size)
Gauge:
15 stitches = 2″ in stocking stitch.
Pattern Stitch: “Purl When Ready” Ribbing
Knit 2, Purl 2 BUT if you find yourself purling into a stitch of a different color in the row below, knit it instead of purling it. In other words, your normal pattern sequence is Knit 2, Purl 2, but on some rounds you may have to substitute knits for purls until you arrive at a point when you’re purling into a stitch of the same color in the row below.
There may be times when you need to knit one or two needles without purling. Don’t fret. Just return to the normal K2, P2, sequence when you can. You will note that “Purl When You Can” ribbing using Opal Tiger yarn produces wider stripes.

I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love hand knit socks. To me they are one of the great luxuries in life. If you have never had the pleasure of wearing handmade socks here is your chance to sample some great patterns.
I am including both knit and crochet patterns here so there is something for everyone. I will most definitely be adding more and more socks in the weeks to come. Why not knit a pair for yourself and some as gifts for the people you love?
Funky But Easy Sock Pattern
These socks are both fun and easy. A great pair to start with if you have never knit socks before.
Click here for free sock pattern.
Two Needle Toe Up Socks
This pattern is very different and excellent for the beginner sock knitter who hasn’t quite gotten the hang of double pointed needles. Instead it is knit on two circular needles. It is also toe up so you can be sure it will fit as you can try it on as you go.
Get the free sock pattern here.
Crochet Light Weight Socks
These socks are a great find. Most crochet patterns for socks are for bootee style socks that are too thick to wear in shoes. This one is done in sock weight yarn and can be worn in your shoes.
Click here for the free pattern.
Toe Up Crochet Socks
This is another unusual crochet sock pattern. It is worked toe-up like many popular knit sock patterns.
