How To Get An Even Better Fit - Get The Guide

This crochet socks pattern tells you how to make different sizes. However, you can always customize crochet socks to perfectly fit your feet. Check out my guide to fitting crochet socks.

The Yarn Used For These Crochet Socks

This pattern was originally designed with Felici Yarn from WeCrochet, it's since been discontinued. It's a self-striping yarn, so you get that great striping look without a billion ends to weave in. This is a limited edition yarn and is machine washable with it's 75% Superwash Merino Wool & 25% Nylon for a great comfortable stretch. It's so soft too, no scratch wool socks here.

Here is a yarn with Nylon that I would suggest as a substitute:
Chroma Worsted: 70% Superwash Wool, 30% Nylon
This yarn has a soft ombre color change and works up nicely.

The Crochet Hook

For this project I chose to work with the Furls Streamline Wood Hook in Camwood. This is not only an affordable streamline hook, but it's also natural, I love the wood.

Crochet Socks Beginner Pattern Notes:

I love self-striping yarn. It makes colorwork easy and fun with fewer ends to weave in later. For this pattern, I really enjoyed working with the Felici Worsted Weight Yarn from WeCrochet, but it is now discontinued, instead try Chroma Worsted, which is also a great option for color changing. It creates a comfy sock that can keep the toes warm. This sock is worked from the toe to the cuff with the heel being worked last.

Repeats are written as S (M, L)
The ch 1 on the ribbing does not count as a stitch.
This sock is worked in the round continuously without joining. I suggest using a stitch marker to keep track of the rounds.

Crochet Socks Beginner Pattern Instructions:

Toe of Sock and Instep

Rnd 1: Inside the Magic Ring sc 6, pull ring closed, do not join as this will be worked continuously. Place stitch marker in first stitch of each round. (6 sts)

Rnd 2: 2 sc in each st around. (12 sts)

Rnd 3: *2sc in first st, sc in next*; repeat from * to * around. (18 sts)

Rnd 4: *2sc in first st, sc in next 2 sts*; repeat from * to * around. (24 sts)

Rnd 5: *2sc in first st, sc in next 3 sts*; repeat from * to * around. (30 sts)

Rnd 6: *2sc in first st, sc in next 4 sts*; repeat from * to * around.

Please note: at this round, the circle diameter is approx 2.75”. If needed, go up or down a hook size to adjust.  (36 sts)

Rnd 7: Sc in each st around.

Repeat this round until the sock reaches about 1 ¾” from the ankle, it’s best to try it on and add or remove rows if needed. This is a great time to customize the sock to your foot size. Remember, these will stretch a little as worn, so it should be a little snug.

Repeat approx. 30 (34, 40) rounds, or until the sock measures 1” before the heel. (36 sts)

Gusset

Rnd 1: Sc 7, 2sc in next, sc 1, 2sc in next, sc 16, 2sc in next, sc 1, 2sc in next, sc 7. (40 sts)

Rnd 4: Sc in each st around. (44 sts)

Rnd 5: Sc 9, 2sc in next, sc 1, 2sc in next, sc 20, 2sc in next, sc 1, 2sc in next, sc 9. (48 sts)

This can be adjusted to be longer or shorter by increasing or decreasing the number of rounds. (36 sts)

Row 3: Ch 1, blo sc 4, sl st 2 sts from the top of the sock, turn. (4 sts)

Repeats: Repeat Row 2-3 all the way around the top of the sock to create the ribbing. Either slip stitch in the blo of the last row to the loops of the first row to join, or fasten off and seam with a tapestry needle.

Heel

Rnd 1: With the top opening of the sock facing upward, join yarn to the 5th stitch to the left of the right heel corner, slip stitch in each stitch around, do not join, and work continuously. (40 sts)
