Welcome to the seventh pattern of Year of Meditations! This design is for Samhain, which is October 31. Beginning the socks at Mabon should allow enough time to complete your project and have the chance to wear your socks while enjoying something warm & steaming on Samhain. Included is a mini-magazine with a recipe, information about owls, and a meditation.

This is a wonderfully simple design of 1/2 cables that have enough repetition to be meditative while still keeping your interest to the end. It would look great with tonal, gradient and handspun.

You’ll need a skein of sock yarn (between 250-375 yards, depending on the size and length you make) and your favorite sock needles (I prefer using the “Magic Loop” method of knitting socks). You also might like to have handy your favorite mug of coffee or tea, a bouquet of flowers, or even a happy song list playing in the background.

The sample was knit with Cauldron’s Path Yarns Full Moon in Deep Thoughts and used 265 yards.

Needles used in sample: US 1 (2.25 mm)
Tapestry needle (to weave in ends)
