Knitting pattern for Ina socks
In Önling, we absolutely love the “Dahlia” pattern, which is used in numerous sweaters and t-shirts. So, naturally, we needed to have a sock in the Dahlia family as well. The pattern is worked on the ankle and the top side of the sock, with stockinette stitches on the underside.
The sock features a well-fitting shadow wrap heel, which is incredibly easy to knit. In the Ina sock, the construction allows you to choose to knit a gusset for extra room around the heel. We’ve knitted the sock in our soft and durable Önling No 18, made from 75% non-superwash wool and 25% recycled PET (plastic) bottles.
The pattern is a PDF file. Immediately after purchase you will be able to download the pattern directly from the purchase confirmation page. You will also receive an e-mail with a link to your pattern, and the pattern will be available here at the site via your personal account - so remember to create an account :-) .
Sizes: Small (size 36-37/US 5.5-6.5), Medium
(size 38-39/US7-8.5), Large (size 40-42/US9.5-11.5)
The sizes can be adjusted so that you can choose to knit according to the stitch count for size small if you have narrow feet and knit them to the desired length. Conversely, you can knit according to the stitch count for size L if you have wide feet
Materials:
50(75)75 g , 100 g = approximately 459 yards (420 meters), 4 ply sock wool - non superwash with recycled bottles
Suggested needles: 2.5 mm / US 2 circular needle with a 60 cm / 23 inches length or 2.5 mm / US 2 double-pointed needles (DPNs)
Gauge: 32 stitches x 47 rows per 10 cm / 4 inches on a 2.5 mm / US 2 circular needle
Procedure:
The Ina sock is knit from the cuff, down over the heel and the foot, and finishes with a rounded toe. The sock is knitted on a circular needle using the magic loop method, but you can certainly use double-pointed needles if you prefer.
A sock with a shadow wrap heel consists of the following sections: ribbing, leg, first and second halves of the heel, which are knit with twin and triple stitches, foot, and toe. For extra room around the heel, you can choose to knit a small gusset before working the heel. These stitches are decreased again after the heel.
