Sometimes, you need socks for snuggling in, not for walking about in. Socks that are perfect for watching TV or a film, when you’re reading a book or even to sleep in. Socks that don’t need to be hard-wearing because their job is to keep you cosy and warm. The Sofa Snuggle socks are perfect for that; DK (8ply) socks knitted to a simple pattern and ideal for that special skein or ball of yarn you’ve been saving which should really be insulating your feet and not your house!

Ideal for beginners, the Sofa Snuggle socks are constructed as cuff down socks with a heel flap and gusset.  One style sports an Eye of Partridge heel flap and toe, and the other has a Ribbed Heel stitch heel flap and a tapered toe for extra fit.

I wanted this to be a pattern that does something good so as well as being an extra layer for a winter when we all might need to be a bit warmer, I’m also going to make a personal donation of £1.00 per pattern to the Trussell Trust, a charity which provides food banks for those who are struggling financially to afford essentials. The current total amount will be updated on the blog post.
