A cozy house sock that is warm and toasty and a little bit luxurious! Bulky yarn makes these a quick knit and they are adaptable to any foot length. They make a great gift and an indulgent treat for your own feet.

The thick squishy ribbing stretches to accomodate a wide range of ankles and calves. Instructions are given to knit socks in narrow, average and wide widths.

This pattern has been written for 9 inch/23 centimetre circulars but is easily adapted to to knit using DPNs, 2 circulars or magic loop. Happy Feet uses cuff down construction with a heel flap and Kitchener-stitched toe.

They’re quick, they’re cute and it’s hard to stop after just one pair…

Two alternative toe finishes are provided for those who prefer not to graft.
