Tilt Crochet Pattern
Love a good sock pattern!
Tilt socks are toe-up style crochet socks with a simple slanted cable pattern that is reversed on the opposite foot. This results in a beautiful unisex sock that everyone will love. Gorgeous in solid and tonal yarns, this sock is also a charming pattern in variegated, hand painted or long striping yarns.
Written in 4-foot widths, the sock is easily customizable to foot length and leg height just by adding more or less of the 2 pattern row repeats once the slanting cables are established. Notes are included to help create a larger leg for those who may have thicker calves than others.
Instructions are included for sizes small: 6 1/2" circumference (fits up to 7 1/2"); medium: 7 1/2" circumference (fits up to 8 1/2") ; large: 8 1/2" circumference (fits up to 9 1/2") and XL: 9 1/2" circumference (fits up to 10.5"). Regular sock requires 275 [300, 330, 356] yards fingering weight / sock yarn and knee-high socks require 410 [425, 465, 534] yards fingering weight / sock yarn. Socks require a 2 1/2 mm and 3 mm crochet hook or sizes needed for gauge. Designed by Karen Whooley.
