The Laxo Stitch was just begging to be incorporated into a pair of socks. Laxo Socks are knit with my absolute favorite toe-up construction. The pattern includes a 45 minute long tutorial to walk you through each step of the pattern!

Kits for Laxo Socks and Cuff were sent as the January ’23 shipment for Lola’s Choice (Laura’s super fun small knitted kit club). Sign up now if you want in on future knitting FUN!

Ribbing stripes are established on the top of the foot and flow into the leg. The Laxo Stitch features elongated stitches that flow in and out with a cabling technique that results in a fabric with tons of squish and elasticity. Perfect for a sock leg that you want to stay up!

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Choose a size about 1 inch smaller around than your foot – sock should stretch to fit.
Foot circumference: 6.5 (7, 7.5, 8, 8.5) inches 16.5 (18, 19, 20.5, 21.5) cm
(to determine foot circumference, measure around the ball of the foot)
Foot length: Adjustable to fit. You want the length of your sock to be about .5 inch 1 cm smaller than your actual foot length, otherwise you will have a baggy sock, which Lola can’t stand!
