Pop Rocks Socks
From $12.50
Travel back to a time where neons were all the rage and candy exploded in your mouth. The Pop Rocks Socks bring that playful nostalgia straight to your feet—and to your knitting needles. Worked in fingering-weight yarn over a gently textured all-over stitch pattern, Pop Rocks Socks are as fun to knit as they are to wear. Hand-dyed in four electrifying neon shades by 316 Dye Studio, the clever combination of stitches creates a subtle “pop” effect that dances across the instep and leg. Whether you’re treating yourself to a splash of ‘80s nostalgia or gifting someone the brightest pair they’ll ever own, Pop Rocks Socks deliver a burst of color and texture in every row. Choose Your Size: In 4 adult sizes, you can select your closest shoe size, or select the best-fit foot circumference (your foot circumference minus 0.5”-1”) then add or remove rows just before the waste yarn on the foot to get the right length. Note that the texture of the socks lengthens when blocking, so be sure to block the sock before making any modifications! Construction Notes: These toe-up socks begin with a modified version of the Magic Cast On that prevents twisted stitches on the sole stitches. The socks are worked in the round one at a time using Magic Loop, though you can easily substitute your favorite sock method. Waste yarn stitches are inserted for a planned "afterthought" heel, and the leg is worked to the cuff. Note that these socks may easily be knit two at a time.
