Make the Munstead Socks Your Own

So, you know that I have released the Munstead sock pattern, and you know it’s raising money for an awesome cause. (If you’ve missed this, check our my earlier post here!)

Munstead Socks

But, maybe you’re thinking about how you like a shorter sock leg. Or that you have longer than average feet. Or you want to use a less variegated yarn?

One of the wonderful things about the Munstead sock pattern is that it is very adaptable in terms of the size you want to make.

On the leg, you simply decide how many repeats of the leaves you want haver the lavender flower. It’s a six round repeat, so you can add more or fewer depending on you preferences for the leg of your sock.

If you need to adjust the length of the foot? Even easier! After the gusset decreases, every row is the same. So you can simply knit as instructed for as long as you want the foot – minus the toe. The pattern gives measurements for the toe, so, as long as you’re working to the same gauge as I did, it’s super easy.

And if you’re thinking “How will it look in a more solid yarn?” Well, my test knitters have your back! Head over to Instagram to see the photos I’ve shared here and here.

And if you now feel ready to start your own pair, please head over to Payhip or Ravelry and buy your copy! If you buy it in October 2022 then £4.80 of what you pay goes straight to Treasure Chest!
