Uddybende information
Winter Rose Socks by KnitAmore are beautifully crafted knitted socks featuring elegant cable patterns and a refined, well-thought-out heel construction. The socks combine classic cable knitting with modern sock construction, resulting in a design that is both visually striking and exceptionally comfortable to wear. The flowing cables are a defining feature and continue seamlessly from the leg down over the heel.
The socks are knitted from the cuff down toward the toe and feature an extended strong heel construction. First, gusset increases are worked on each side of the sock while the cable pattern continues uninterrupted across the heel area. Once the desired heel width is reached, the heel is shaped using decreases combined with German Short Rows, creating a smooth, anatomical fit without the need to pick up stitches. This technique results in a heel that is both elegant and highly comfortable.
Winter Rose Socks are knitted on 3.0 mm needles and can be worked using either double-pointed needles or the Magic Loop technique on a circular needle. The cable pattern is simple yet decorative and provides excellent stretch, allowing the socks to adapt comfortably to different foot shapes.
The recommended yarns are Arwetta by Filcolana, Jawool by Lang Yarns, or Meilenweit 100 Tweed by Lana Grossa. Arwetta and Jawool both have a yardage of 210 meters per 50 g, which equals 210 meters per 50 g. Meilenweit 100 Tweed has a yardage of 420 meters per 100 g, corresponding to 210 meters per 50 g. The pattern uses approximately 50–70 g of yarn, depending on foot length and leg height.
Winter Rose Socks are knitted in one size. The sock circumference at mid-foot is approximately 18 cm, but thanks to the stretchy cable pattern, the socks can comfortably stretch to fit feet measuring up to 24–25 cm in circumference. The length of the socks is fully adjustable to suit individual foot length and shoe size.
The gauge is 30 stitches x 41 rows in stockinette stitch = 10 x 10 cm on 3.0 mm needles. Winter Rose Socks are an ideal project for knitters who enjoy cables, technical details, and a beautifully fitting sock with a refined finish.
