These textured socks feature a simple staggered eyelet design, reminiscent of dragons scales.

The pattern is easy to remember making these a great portable project, and a quick knit.

Two widths are provided (9’’ and 10’’ circumference, measured at the ball of the foot) and the sock is knitted to your desired length.

First published in print as part of my book, ‘The Second Drawer Down’ available from www.trulyhooked.com

Any sock yarn is suitable for this pattern. Choose wool fibres for stetch and comfort. I deally your yarn should also include nylon for strenght and durabilty. Avoid slippy fibres and select solid or tonal colours so the colourwork pattern shows up. Take a black and white photograph of your chosen yarns, this will show if the contrast is stromg enough between them.
Your fabric should be firm,with a little give. Socks should fell 'bandage tight' when first put on, and will relax with wear, like your favourite pair of jeans.
