I stamp dozens of short socks. You only need to know knit and purl stitches

Warm socks can be knitted at any time of the year if you live in a region with a cold climate or are often outdoors in cool weather. They can also be tied in advance and stored until cold weather sets in. If you are new to knitting, then it is better to choose a simple model without complex patterns and decorations. This will help you master the basics of knitting and enjoy the process. The slippers, which I will show you today, are knitted very simply, on two straight needles, in garter stitch. This is when all rows are knitted with facial loops. As a result, the fabric is thick and dense. But before you start, take some measurements. You need to measure your foot length. For me it is 25 cm. We will knit a square, but without one fourth. Calculation of loops. Depending on the thickness of the yarn, the number of loops is different. Let's make a sample. For example, we cast on 20 loops and knit a small piece. Next, we measure with a ruler - I got 20 loops, which is 10 cm. So 25 cm is 50 loops. We put 50 loops on the knitting needles and knit 12.5 cm in garter stitch. You can insert stripes of a different color. Cast off 25 stitches and knit another 12.5 cm. The result is a painting like this. Please note that the stripes are mirrored. We fold our blanks along the sides 25 cm (this will be the sole). We sew up two sides that go at right angles. When you put slippers on your feet, they stretch and take the shape of your foot. The stripes are located on the right side. In such slippers you will feel very comfortable and pleasant, and even more so if it is winter time, when you really want extra warmth. This scheme is suitable for all family members. Just measure your foot length. Don't be afraid to experiment with colors to create unique short socks that will delight you and your loved ones.
