Meet your new favorite socks!

The Jules socks are simple yet addictive to knit. The slipped stitch pattern creates an interesting texture that look almost woven. The socks are knitted toe-up and combine the traditional gusset and heel flap heel with the extra roundness of the short-row heel. The stretchy fabric combined with the high instep of the heel construction guarantee a very well fitting sock.

The Jules socks are designed especially for speckled yarns and sock kits, but you can just as well knit the socks in just one color or add a pop of color to the cuff, heel and toes with leftover sock yarn in a contrasting color.
