Twisty Staircase Socks
These socks are a fun way to add texture to self striping or tonal yarns! The patterning only requires knit and purl stitches, and since every second row is a repeat of the one before it makes for relaxed knitting.
Pattern Notes:
This pattern comes in three adult sizes. They are knit cuff down but an experienced sock knitter could easily adapt the patterning to knit it toe up. I provide instructions for a heel flap and gusset, and a standard rounded toe, but your preferred heel/toe method or pattern can be substituted.
This pattern has been tested and tech edited.
Materials:
100 grams (400 yards/365 metres) of sock weight yarn
2.25 - 2.5 mm (US 1 -1.5) needles (32” circular for magic loop, 2 24” circulars or DPNs) or size that achieves the gauge you prefer
Darning needle
