Dragons scales socks
I’m currently having trouble paying through Ravelry, my patterns can be purchased on Boosty or through my PayPal by sending a private message as it is not possible to link it to a Ravelry page. On Boosty you pay for the post, it contains a PDF file with the English version of the pattern. I will also send you the pattern via Ravelry so that it will be saved in your library throughout the day. Sorry for the temporary convenience
‘Dragon scales’ socks are worked from the cuff down. They start with a simple ribbed cuff, then continue with 
a simple all-over leafy lace print. The heel is worked with decreases and increases mimicking short-rows (you 
can easily replace with a classic short-row heel if you prefer). The foot is worked with leafy print on the top 
and stockinette on the bottom. Design finishes with a classic toe with decreases in every other round and a 
Kitchener graft.
YARN: classic sock yarn – fingering weight (380-420m/415-455 yds per 100g/3.5oz), a wool blend appropriate 
for socks (e.g. with nylon, silk, bamboo, etc) 
You can use a solid / tonal or slow gradient yarn. 
Yardages per size are provided in the Sizing & Yardage table below. 
The sample is knitted in hand-dyed yarn @zolotaianit (75% merino wool, 25% polyamide)
NEEDLES: 80cm / 32” circular needle for magic loop or set of DPNs in 2 mm / US 0 (or size to obtain gauge).
NOTIONS: Stitch markers, row counter (optional), scissors and tapestry needle.
GAUGE 
36 sts and 48 rows per 1010cm/ 44” after wet-blocking in print
Finished sock circumference (unstretched) is 20.5 (23, 25) 
cm / 8 (9, 10)”. I recommend picking a size based on foot 
circumference (and NOT shoe size), go for the one that gives 
you 1.25-2.5 cm / 0.5 -1” of negative ease. The sample was 
knit in size 2 shown on a foot circumference of 22 cm / 8.5”. 
Leg length worked in sample is 16.5 cm / 6.5” (leg and foot 
length are fully adjustable)
