"Westside Socks", entire foot length 24 - 28,5 cm, easy heel

Product description

WESTSIDE SOCKS - a knitting pattern by fil-art-aue

***Far west - where waves thundering against the rocks, the Atlantic is rough and the wind blows in strong gusts - warm hand-knitted socks are essential, even for the big boys, real men and strong women!

A very decorative wave pattern runs as a double band along the outside of the leg, then merges into the heel at the back and runs along the outside of the foot as a simple band to the tip of the foot.

The socks are worked top-down on a circular knitting needle (= magic loop method) in rounds - i.e. from top to bottom or from the cuff towards the tip of the foot. Alternatively, it is also possible to work with DPNs or with trio-needles.

And don't worry about the heel! In my search for a really simple but well-fitting heel I came across the "Strong Heel". This heel was introduced in 2003 in "Knitters Issue 73" by Geraldine Crawford Strong - hence the name. This heel offers many advantages:

  • It is really easy to knit, because you only have to work simple increasings.
  • It is knitted almost continuously in rounds (with a few short rows), so no picking up of stitches from the heel flap and no annoying holes.
  • It can easily be adjusted to any foot shape or width and has an excellent fit.
  • With this heel shape, all kinds of patterns can be easily "built in".

Skills Required / What You'll Receive

In order to knit the socks, basic knowledge and some practice in knitting is all you need. All steps are explained in detail. For techniques that might not be quite so familiar - such as elastic cast-on - there are also "links" to helpful videos. All patterns are both, charted and written!

You will receive a detailed knitting pattern in English language, with size informations and material specifications, tips, further links and photos.

Size Information

The socks are described for 3 widths, size US (Men) 6 - 11, UK 5,5 – 10,5. These socks can be easily adjusted. Attention: The Wave Pattern is too wide for smaller sizes!

Leider nur in Englisch, daher etwas mühsam zu übersetzen, ansonsten eigentlich einfach zu stricken, nicht unbedingt für Anfänger geeignet.

Sehr schöne Mütze
Sehr verständliche und einfache Anleitung. Je nach Wolle muss der Maschenanschlag angepasst werden, steht aber in der Beschreibung. Ich habe schon drei in versch. Farben gestrickt. Danke

Gut
Die Anleitung ist sehr gut und Veständlich, es hat Spaß gemacht, die Mütze nachzustricken. Leider fällt sie recht klein aus. Das hstte ich an Hand der Bilder anders erwartet.

Tolle Mütze
Diese Anleitung ist super! Allerdings nicht geeignet um es beim Fernsehen nebenher zu versuchen. Zumindest am Anfang. Ich habe inzwischen 6 Mützen nach dieser Vorlage gestrickt. Sehen super aus

Anleitung stimmt irgendwie nicht ...
Strickschrift und schriftliche Anleitung sind nicht gleich, außerdem stimmt die Anleitung bei der Strickschrift im letzten Teil mit dem Lochmuster nicht, oder wir sind zu blöd die Anleitung zu verstehen....

Super schick
Sehr schöne und verständliche Anleitung für einen super schicken und edlen Loop. Das Muster ist sehr einprägsam. Bereits nach dem ersten Mustersatz brauchte ich keinen Spickzettel mehr :) Die Anleitung und das Stricken machen sehr viel Spaß. Der zweite Loop ist schon angenadelt.

    kurze technische Frage: bin gerade kurz vor dem Zwickel - du schreibst "nach 66 Runden", also zweimal die Strickschrift A à 32 Runden - da komm ich nur auf 64 Runden.. wo sind die fehlenden 2 Runden - hab ich da was übersehen? - oder soll ich einfach nach 2x Strickschrift A mit dem Zwickel beginnen.. Danke..

      Bitte nochmal genau nachlesen! Insgesamt 66 Rd im Muster arbeiten. Das sind 2 x die 32 Rd plus nochmal die ersten 2 Rd (= nach einer 2. Rd des Musters).
      Weitere Fragen zur Anleitung bitte per Nachricht oder Email.
