Discover Woow Socks, a versatile and wonderfully satisfying sock pattern designed to make every stitch enjoyable and if you like stripes, perfect pattern to use up those leftovers.
The star of the design is an innovative heel construction that requires no picked-up stitches and no short rows. Even better, the heel keeps your stripes beautifully uninterrupted—so your colorwork flows seamlessly from leg to heel.
Love knitting two-at-a-time (TAAT) Woow Socks are made for it! The straightforward construction makes it easy to create a perfectly matching pair while avoiding the dreaded second-sock syndrome.
And you can knit them your way. Woow Socks include instructions for both cuff-down and toe-up construction, with sizing and yarn options for fingering, sport, and worsted weight yarns. You can choose to knit plain vanilla socks, single colour ribbed socks, stockinette or ribbed socks with thin, thick or thin and thick stripes.
Whether you’re an experienced sock knitter or simply looking for a fresh, enjoyable construction to try, Woow Socks are designed to be as practical as they are fun to knit—and to become a go-to favorite in your handmade wardrobe.
One pattern, plenty of possibilities—and a heel that will make you say, “Woow!”
