Knitting Sock Pattern - Knitted Sock for a Child
-
Knitting sock pattern Materials for 1 pair: 1 ounce of single
Berlin wool; 1 yard of narrow pink or blue ribbon; 2 fine steel pins.
This sock fits well, and is easy to make. It is knitted upon two pins, backwards
and forwards. Cast on 22 stitches and knit 22 rows, but increase once at the
end of every other row on the right side of the work, so that there are 33 stitches
in the 22nd row. Now cast off 28 stitches and knit 12 rows, increasing 1 stitch
at the end of every other row.
Now 12 more rows, decreasing 1 stitch at the end of every other row; this forms
the toe. Cast on 28 stitches on the same needle, and knit 22 rows, decreasing
1 stitch at the end of every other row, and cast off. Pick up the 68 stitches
on the upper part of shoe, and knit 20 rows, alternately 2 plain and 2 purl
rows, decreasing 1 stitch on each side of the 12 stitches in every other row,
which forms the toe and front of sock.
Knit 14 rows of 2 plain, 2 purl stitches alternately, then 3 open rows with
1 plain row between. The open rows are worked as follows:--* Purl 2 together,
purl 1, make 1, repeat *, 3 plain rows, 1 open row, 1 plain row, and cast off.
The sock is sewn together down the back of leg, centre of sole, and the point
joined like a gusset to form the toe.
