Time for uninterrupted stripes and seamless knitting in the round. The No Heel Turn Sock Pattern is finally written up. (Please excuse the makeshift cardboard sock blockers...)

This sock knitting pattern does not require to work a heel-flap and there is no need to pick up stitches.

The heel in this pattern is created simply by working increases, followed by an equal number of decreases.

If you are able to knit on double-pointed needles in the round, you are confident to work k2tog and ssk decreases, and you have toyed with the idea of getting into sock knitting, this pattern will be a beginner-friendly entry into the wonderful world of top-down vanilla socks.

The free pattern is available via my main blog.

My programme for this weekend: knitting socks and reading a Christmas(-ish) themed book.

One week traveling..and four pairs of socks are done!!!

It's cold out there! So it's a good thing this Bigfoot has some cozy socks that actually fit! This Bigfoot is a gift for a friend (who has named him Biggie) but finishing him and his little socks has me excited to make and create cute things again. So I'm going to try and get some things listed in my Etsy shop and of course share them here! Besides some cute cryptids with cozy accessories what other kinds of things would you like to see? If anyone has any suggestions or even things they'd like to commission, I'm all ears! . . . . . #tinyhappyknits #tinythingsmakemehappy #knitting #knitaholic #knitaddict #knittersofinstagram #toyknitting #knitbigfoot #bigfoot #knittersgonnaknit #makersgonnamake #sockknitting #sockknittersofinstagram #sockyarn #handknitsocks #sockknitter #sockknitters https://www.instagram.com/p/CoNyG2cOPRC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This colour is called "Sparkling Lights" and I love it. 🌟🌟🌟🌟 This was my first time knitting socks, first time using double-pointed needles, and first time using my special knitting stitch markers! This was really awesome because I've been knitting for about 15 or 16 years now, but only at a beginner level. I'm finally starting to learn more now that I have crochet under my belt since June. 💪 Really excited to see what else I'll knit now that I know how to use DPNS and have a TON more Hobbii sock yarn on the way. #hobbiiuniversechristmas (The Christmas Universe sock yarn is on sale rn btws. This colour is sold out, but still. I snagged the remaining two colours and each of the Halloween Universe line in wool. I'm gonna have warm feets all winter long!) 🐑 Also, one pair of socks only took up about 33% of one yarn cake, so like.. that's soooo nice to have enough to make multiple pairs, especially because I love this colour and now it's sold out. I could probably make some knee or thigh highs out of the other yarn cakes I ordered. I'm so exciteddd. 👌 So yeah. My goal was to finish these before Christmas, and I did it! (We're celebrating tomorrow.) 🎄 Mewwy Cwisma to all and to all a good nini!! 😜 #socks #knit #knitted #knitting #knittedsocks #handmade #homemade #christmas #christmassocks #yarn #yarnaddict #fiberart #hobbii #sockyarn #sparklinglights https://www.instagram.com/p/CmgQxYsuGgo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Her ankles were cold, so I crocheted her legwarmers. She's quite pleased with them, if you're wondering. #crochet #onlinelinie12yarn #nendography #nendoroiddoll #killlakill #SatsukiKiryuin #nendoroiddollaccessories #signatured #ladysatsuki #fujifilmfinepix #finepixjx520 #fujifilm #afgancrochet #nendoroid #chibisatsuki #shorthairedsatsuki #winter #winterclothes #sockyarn #signatured https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnzw7mrJqEW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Mended socks for a HIGHLY knit-worthy friend @jamie_gerry 💚 She’s worn them at least once a week since I knit them and they had worn COMPLETELY through on the heels - I didn’t have any of the matching yarn so I made the patches with a contrast colour #SockYarn #SockKnitter #SockKnitters #HandKnitSocks #Mending #Darning #AussieKnitters #AussieKnitter https://www.instagram.com/p/Cndc8VeJHTB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

To those who knit with sock yarn, I salute you! 👏 I came across this skein of sock weight yarn that's been in my stash for longer than I'd like to admit so I figured I'd make myself the pair of fingerless gloves I've been meaning to make forever with it... this is as far as I got and I'm calling it quits. I'll pair it with something bigger to knit my darn mitts . . #knit #knitsagram #knitter #sockyarn #iquit #dnf #knittersofinstagram #handmade #handknit #yarnlife https://www.instagram.com/p/CnDXvp1uuk1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
