Free Knitting Pattern – Slouchy Socks

September 1, 2023 by Shellie Wilson

Welcome to the Free Knit Slouchy Socks Pattern! These soothing knit socks are the perfect accessory to keep your feet warm and cozy during the colder months. The pattern is designed to be worked with Red Heart Super Saver Brushed yarn, which is soft, warm and durable. The pattern requires only 1 ball of yarn and DPNs size 9 (5.50 mm) and includes instructions for small, medium, and large sizes. This pattern is suitable for easy knitters, as it does not require any complicated techniques.

One of the benefits of homemade socks is that they can be customized to fit your feet perfectly. When you knit your own socks, you can adjust the pattern to fit your foot size and shape, ensuring a comfortable fit that is tailored to your needs. Homemade socks are also made with high-quality materials, making them more durable and long-lasting than store-bought socks.

Another benefit of homemade socks is that they can be made in a variety of colors and patterns. This allows you to create socks that match your personal style and that can be worn with a variety of outfits. Homemade socks also make great gifts for family and friends, as they are unique and personalized.

Knitting your own slouchy socks can also be a relaxing and satisfying hobby. The repetitive motions of knitting can be meditative and soothing, making it a great way to unwind after a long day. The final product is a pair of socks that will keep your feet warm and cozy, not to mention, they are also comfortable and stylish.

So grab your needles and yarn, and let’s get started on creating these beautiful slouchy socks! The pattern is easy to follow and the final product is sure to delight. Not only will you have the satisfaction of creating your own pair of socks but also the benefits of having a comfortable, durable and stylish pair. The pattern is available for free on the website Mary Maxim, you just have to follow the link and download it. Happy knitting!

A Sweet Skater Dress to Knit

I know knitting a dress sounds like a major time commitment. And that’s before I even tell you that this particular dress, the Sixth Ave Skater Dress by Briana Luppino, is worked in light fingering weight yarn. 

But would you just take a moment to look at it and tell me if it doesn’t look like it would be worth all the time you would spend knitting it? And it’s miles of stockinette stitch so it’s actually beginner friendly and a great semi-mindless knit you can take with you on your travels this summer and wear when it is done. 

The dress is worked from the top down with tank straps, a scoop neck, waist shaping and a flowy skirt for a fun and comfortable fit. 

The pattern has 10 sizes, with finished bust measurements ranging from 28 to 64 inches, or 71.5 to 163 cm. The sample shown was worked with 4 inches/10 cm of negative ease at the bust, and the designer says most people like between 2 and 6 inches/5 to 15 cm of negative ease in the bust and around 10 inches/25.4 cm positive ease in the hips. 

(To refresh your memory, negative ease means the measurement of the garment is smaller than your actual body measurement, while positive ease is bigger than your body.)

To pick a size you’d work from the bust measurement because you can always add more or fewer decreases as you need to get your desired fit at the waist and hips. And because it’s worked from the top down you can try it on as often as you like to make sure it’s the perfect fit. 

The I-cord edgings give the dress a super casual feel, and I think this would be a great one to add to your summer rotation. (Yes, even with a wool blend yarn.)

You can see lots of cute finished versions and grab a copy of the pattern for yourself on Ravelry.
