Speedy Socks No.2 - No.272E

The SPEEDY SOCKS No. 2 - Chunky Light are knitted from the toe to the cuff. The top and upper are adorned with a 2x1 ribbed pattern and the sole is worked in stockinette stitch. From the tip to the opening, they are knitted in rounds, then in rows. The heel is shaped by decreases. Finally, the SPEEDYs are given a long cuff.

The house socks got the name SPEEDY because they can actually be knitted super fast - 3 threads of thin sock yarn and knitting needles of size 5.0.

Techniques used: purl and purl stitches, increases and decreases – no need for a split heel. All techniques used are explained directly in the instructions, partly with videos.

Skills: Basic knowledge required, everything else is explained in detail or explained in detail through videos!
