Skill level
Intermediate
Intermediate knitting patterns are aimed at knitters who have a solid understanding of fundamental techniques and are ready for more challenging patterns. Knitters at this level are expected to be comfortable reading patterns, working with a variety of needle types, and executing more advanced techniques such as cables, lace work, detailed construction methods or intarsia. These patterns require reading complex charts or instructions, offering knitters the chance to refine their skills and explore creative, sophisticated designs.
Description
Mix and match cute Christmas motifs inspired by traditional Scandinavian patterns for a cozy pair of socks. Use the motifs as an accent stripe only or work them as an all-over pattern – the choice is all yours to create a truly unique pair of socks for yourself or as a gift for your loved ones. These socks are worked in the round from the cuff down with a short-row heel using German short-rows with double stitches. Knitters can choose to work motif charts all over or to use selected motifs as accent stripes.
About the Designer
Designer Mone Dräger was taught to knit by her grandmother when she was a child and she's been addicted ever since. She has always adapted patterns to her needs and made up patterns if she couldn't find exactly what she was looking for. Eventually, she started writing up her ideas into knitting patterns and began sharing them with other knitters. To connect with Mone, you'll find her as MoneMade on Instagram and Ravelry
