Super Simple Socks

Designed by Sarah Leese Aka CroCreate

This pattern is written in standard UK crochet terms

Materials

• 1 Ball (100g) of chosen yarn – I used Aldi’s So Crafty acrylic/wool

mix (50/50) but any wool mix yarn will be appropriate.

Alternatives include Cascade Pacific Multis or Stylecraft life

heritage.

• I used self-striping yarn for my socks for two reasons. One it was

easier to disguise the joins of the rounds and two because it

meant I did not need to work any colour changes.

• 5mm Crochet hook

• Scissors

• Tapestry Needle

Sizes and measurements

• Finished sock length 32cm (cuff down). 40cm Cuff up (can be worn

either way). Socks sit at just above ankle height with cuff down.

• Finished sock width 12cm. Made to fit adult sized foot size UK 8

or below.

Gauge

13 Htr x 11 rows = 4” square using a 5mm hook and worsted weight yarn.

To ensure your socks will become the required size I would recommend

hooking up a gauge swatch prior to commencement of the pattern and

adjust yarn / hooks accordingly.

Round 2. Ch2 (does not count as a stitch). Htr Inc in the stitch at the

bottom of the Ch2, Htr inc into each st around. (18).

Rounds 4-37. Ch2 (does not count as a stitch), work 1Htr into the stitch

at the bottom of the Ch2, 1Htr into each stitch around.

At the end of Round 37 FO. We will work the cuff of the sock separately

and attach to the sock at the end.

Sock Cuff

1. Ch 14, 1Htr into the 3rd Ch from the hook and each of the next 11

stitches. Ch 2 and turn.

2. 1 Htr into the BL of each stitch to the end. Ch2 and turn.

3. 3-27 – 1Htr into the BL of each stitch, Ch2 and turn. At the end

of row 27 omit the Ch2 and turn DO NOT FASTEN OFF. We will

now attach the cuff to the sock.

With the WS of the sock facing you flatten the sock and determine the

central point. We will begin attaching the cuff using a simple DC at the

central point of the sock when flat. Insert your hook through one row of

the cuff and one stitch of the sock top, yarn over and pull through, yarn

over and pull through both loops to make a stitch. You will continue

around the top of the sock attaching the cuff in this manner. One stitch

on the sock body will coincide with the top of each of the rows on the

cuff.

When you reach the end of the top rim do not fasten off, we will now

seam the cuff. Dc the cuff seam together in the same way as you

attached the cuff to the sock. You will have 12 stitches down the seam.

Once you have completed the cuff seam FO and weave in the ends.

Enjoy your new super simple socks. They are particularly cosy worn

with pyjamas and enjoyed with a hot drink of your choice
