Brand-New Digital Pattern - No-Sew Socks

 

“My” knitters love to make and give beautiful, quality socks, and I have already written two sock-making books.  One is for the standard machine with a ribber and the other book is for circular sock machines. 

However, if you have a standard gauge machine and you don’t have or want to use a ribber, this pattern is for you!  This sock is great to knit on any brand of Japanese 4.5 mm flatbed machine. 

This NO SEW SOCK comes off the machine finished!  All you have to do is hide the beginning and ending yarn tails!  Check this out:

·         NO toe grafting

·         NO stitching side seams

·         NO ribber required

·         NO circular knitting

·         COMFY socks without bulky foot seams  

This pattern features “sew as you go” knitting by picking up side loops as well as mock rib cuffs which are also joined as you knit on the machine.  The pattern has many color closeup photos of the techniques as well as linking to a detailed video which teaches each step.

Choose between a shorty sock to wear with gym shoes or a longer sock.  The pattern contains 12 sizes, from babies to big guys. 

Make this with quality Group 2 hand knitting sock yarn.  I like solid and variegated colorways for this project.  Self-striping yarns are difficult to match.   Sock yarn with 75% Superwash wool and 25% nylon can be machine washed and tumbled dry and will last for years.  

The No Sew Sock pattern is an automatic digital download, available at https://www.dianaknits.com.
