I Heart You Socks Pattern

These adorable socks feature the 'I heart you' sign on the ankle, making them perfect for showing some love to your feet! Follow the instructions below to create your own pair of cozy and cute socks.

Materials:

Gauge:

32 stitches and 40 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch

Instructions:

  1. Cast on 64 stitches using the long tail cast on method.
  2. Divide the stitches evenly onto 4 double-pointed needles (16 stitches on each needle) and join in the round, being careful not to twist the stitches.
  3. Knit in a K2, P2 ribbing for 1.5 inches.
  4. Next, knit in stockinette stitch until the sock measures approximately 6 inches from the cast on edge, ending with a purl round.
  5. Heel Flap: Work the heel flap back and forth on half of the total stitches. Row 1: *Sl1, K1; repeat from * to end. Row 2: Sl1, purl to end. Repeat these 2 rows until the heel flap measures 2 inches.
  6. Turn Heel: Row 1: K18, SSK, K1, turn. Row 2: Sl1, purl7, P2tog, P1, turn. Row 3: Sl1, knit to 1 stitch before gap, SSK (passing the gap), K1, turn. Row 4: Sl1, purl to 1 stitch before gap, P2tog (passing the gap), P1, turn. Repeat these last 2 rows until all stitches have been worked. 20 stitches remain.
  7. Gusset: Pick up and knit 9 stitches along the side of the heel flap, knit across the instep stitches, pick up and knit 9 stitches along the other side of the heel flap. Rearrange stitches if necessary so you have 32 stitches on the instep.
  8. Decrease for gusset as follows: Round 1: Knit to last 3 stitches on the first needle, K2tog, K1. Knit across instep stitches. On the second needle, K1, SSK, knit to end. Rounds 2-3: Knit even. Repeat these two rounds until you have 64 total stitches again.
  9. Foot: Continue knitting in stockinette stitch until the foot measures approximately 1.5 inches from the back of the heel, or about 2 inches shorter than the desired foot length.
  10. Toe: Round 1: Knit to last 3 stitches on first needle, K2tog, K1. On the second needle, K1, SSK, knit to last 3 stitches, K2tog, K1. Repeat for third and fourth needles. Round 2: Knit even. Repeat these two rounds until you have 16 stitches total. Graft toe stitches together using Kitchener stitch.
  11. Weave in ends and repeat for the second sock.

Your 'I Heart You' socks are now ready to wear or gift to someone special. Enjoy!
